[Tinman13 2]

it is possible to reseat the valve with very fine metal polish .I have done it . There is or was information on the net on how to do this .It was possible on my stealth to remove my valve by unscrewing the brass part that the valve stem goes through .Keeping the valve settings undisturbed ,the valve ,valve stem,top hat and that brass piece with its oring can be removed complete .If you have a problem getting parts you may be able to repair the valve the same way you reseat engine valves using solvol autosol NOT VALVE PASTE ..OR A DRILL . dont use to much solvol dont let it go down stem to much just twist the valve with your fingers a little job done ...maybe...if you do get solvol down the stem and loosen the stem by enlarging the hole the stem is in the gun will still work .if the stem gets to loose air will leak out of the side of the stem when the gun is shot.The gun will still shoot fine but the gun will just waste a little air with each shot .The gun does this any way because of its design it will just get worse .the autosol can be cleaned out with warm soapy water. if you can get the parts all well and good but depending on what parts you get you may still have to polish and repair the brass piece, then fit the new valve to that .hope this makes sense I have read that the gunpower lot are or were very unhelpful helping people with problems .

Scrap it and buy yourself a decent rifle that works, Stealths are renowned for being unreliable and time consuming!

I love stealths but mine was on bench in bits more than I shot it .

I stripped and polished my valve and it was ok for while but not long think I sorted a valve from Aaron wheelers in end but then was suffering inconsistent problems total headache but look awsum

Its not the nicest gun like and the pistol grip is vile

they can be made to work but as the quote says scrap it ....................consuming . In the usa these guns are cheap and powerful [netherlands powerful] here they are a wast of time .Give up now while you still have chance ,the gun will consume you life ...KIDS JUST SAY NO
