my huben has a developed a slow leak. Just wondering what the commonest places for these K1s to leak from?
Help! Slow leak Huben K1

The regulator. I had to have Kelly rebuild mine after I left it in the cold shed for several days. It was slow leaking and the reg was not stable.
He suggested trying some teflon lube in the regulator to help seal it but that didn't help, so went for a rebuild.

Check Kelly's website, he has some videos for checking for leaks.

I have an older model and replaced the regulator with a Huma Air Regulator and have not had any issues since.

There is a small oring under the regulator gage. Mine leaked very slowly from that oring. Removed gage and replaced oring and it sealed perfectly. Kelly at KrazKool is very knowledgeable and helpful.

First check obvious places, spray soap water around screw on top of receiver, around gauges, and fill area. No leaks there, then remove stock, scope rail/trigger group, and cheek piece. Spray on top of air tube where Regulator is. If its reg., may have a oring or plastic seal bad. Easy fix.
