sounds like the tank is nearly empty, you have a bad cupseal, or something is obstructing the valve pin fron moving all the way through the valve. you need to take out the two screws under the feedneck to remove the asa, pull out the valve pin, spring, guide, and cupseal... should come out in one or 2 pieces. then take off the trigger frame, take out the gold screw with a slot for a flathead screwdriver. then find something long, narrow, and stiff, like maybe a big screwdriver, although i would recommend using a fuzzy swab that you would use in your barrel. put it in the lower chamber where you would normally insult the bolt/hammer assembly, and push untill the valve comes out the other end. examine all of this and come back if you find anything. when you put it back in, put some oil on the valve pin and the valve o-rings.

Disassemble the marker and inspect and oil all the o-rings; replace any that are faulty. Look at the cup seal and see if it seats correctly. If not, then replcace that too.

Good luck.

Moved to spyder forum.

^^^^best advice right there....it is most likely your cup seal.

**make sure you remove your valve and oil it semi heavily**
so many people overlook that....

iv looked everything though... and i found a layout of my gun online... everything looks the way it should.... should the cupseal be blocking off the air going through the valvebody?
because whenever i put the valve pin on the cupseal it blocks off all the air going to my low pressure chamber... and makes a funny noise... please help again lol

***onesikpup*** · March 12th, 08:51 PM

yes, it should seal, but it wont block off the air to the lpc, since it has to go thru the lpc to get to the cup seal.

are you certain you have put the valve in facing the right direction?

i also suggest you try a new cupseal.

I WOULD SAY THE SAME THING THAT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN IM REALLY LOW ON AIR OR A CUP SEAL BROKE.
