Having leaks coming from my valve area. I can get it stop sometimes by closing 2nd reg fully gun than opening 2nd reg. Thats a PITA. I already have the orings from FX. Just wanted to know how far I have to tear gun down to get to it. Ive watched vidoes on youtube just hoping theres an easier way. Thanks

If the air is coming down the barrel, you need a new valve pin. The whole gun has to be taken apart.

I dont think its coming down barrel just out that nut above airtube. I took it apart and the orings look fine. No tearing what so ever. The valve pin seemed tight could that be it. Maybe it needs lubed. Working fine now. Only occurs when I degas the gun. Thanks

Sounds like something isn't seating well after you degas the gun what are you running your second reg at ?

The same thing happened to mine. It turned out to be the O ring in the valve pin cap. I tore mine down all the way except the block. You may get by with just removing the plenum. You will have to be cautious because the cocking rod runs just below and to the side o the valve pin cap. The valve pin will come straight out once the cap is removed. Be watchful for the valve pin spring when you take it apart.
Good luck.

I could not see anything wrong with mine either. but a new one stopped the leak out the cap.

If you can fix it, its worth the try. It should still be in warranty. That's a month without your gun!

Yeah Ill figure it out one way or another, not sending it in that would be last resort. I like to tinker with stuff so doesnt bother me
