when I set lpr between 75 & 80 there is just enough air to cycle the bolt i have to turn lpr up past 150 to get it to shoot any ideas why this is happening :(

1. Check the LPR base o-ring (the square o-ring) and relube/replace.

2. Check your HPR and LPR pin valves for damage.

3. Replace both your HPR and LPR pison o-rings.

4. Check your poppet and ram o-rings for wear and damage. Replace if needed.

Sent you a PM but try upping the dwell some more and see what happens - and yes please keep the LPR at under 75PSI :)

Yeah I'm glad to hear you figured out the problem and it was a simple fix. I'll have to remember that next time someone has tried almost everything to get their marker to fire :D

It is strange though that the marker fired fine when you hit the red button on the noid. A severe blockage such as the one you described should have rendered the noid incapacitated regardless of the way it was triggered.

But in any case glad to hear it is fixed!
