heheheh Just when you think everything is running good, my favorite sound from a paint ball gun is heard.
A mild to light hiss from the engine area. Now since I have the new 2 piece pillow bolt/ ram combo I pulled the engine of the gun out and went to the regular job of inspecting o-Rings and cleaning excess lube off the gun.
here is where I noticed something new....
the engine has a two piece design. You take off the bolt and you can unscrew the engine and it pops into two pieces with the ram in the middle which supports the poppit snd spring assembly.
went threw all the o-rings reassembled and installed... still a small hiss
took the engine out again.... this time I noticed the 2 part engine assembly had unscrewed its self when there was gas threw the gun. Tightened it up, reassembled and gassed it up again.... same problem.
now nothing short of using blue locktite again are there any suggestions?
I do not know if this is the cause of the hiss or just something new to deal with but I wanted to just throw this out there for general suggestions.
Thanks in advance for the help guys !!!!
