bullmastiff 615 Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) Went to charge my Solo this morning for another session on the pigeons but found when I plugged the adapter into the gun and started pumping, the air was leaking out. I wrapped some PTFE plumbers tape around the end O ring and managed with much huffing and puffing to pump it fast enough to charge it to 150Bar. Anyone know where I could find a new set? I've been looking on the net but can't find them anywhere? Sorry for quality of pic (camera phone!) Any help would be much appreciated! Cheers Luke.

bullmastiff 615 Posted May 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 I've got a range of O rings at work but this one feels hard, like plastic not rubber? so didn't want to pull it off until I got another? Cheers Luke Quote Link to post

Cheers Luke Its probably leaking because its hard mate. I used the normal rubber ones for ages and they work well. HTH Michael Quote Link to post
