deanflute 550 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Is there a problem with my cylinder or my valve or am i just trying to fill it wrong? i have tried with a bottle and once the gun was at my desired pressure i turned off the bottle tap and when i went to release the exess air out of the hose it just emptied all my cylinder, i have bought a pump now and that does exactly the same when i come to bleed that.....any ideas anyone? cheers Dean Quote Link to post

ASME IX 1 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 anyone?? when the inlet valve sticks open this usualy caused by filling the gun up to fast. you need to take the inlet valve off the cylinder then take out the ptfe seal and check it isnt damaged,if every think seems to be in order reasemble the valve making sure every thing is clean and oil and grease free,once every thing back together make sure the rifles hammer is cocked(with no pellet up the spout !!!) start to fill the rifle nice and slow . asme9 Quote Link to post
