Thumbs up Help with Spyder Imagine

My buddy has a Spyder Imagine that he bought from a garage sale that wont work. I have taken the gun comepletly appart and have checked all the seals and can't see anything wrong with it. The problem is when the gun is not cocked you can hear a small trickle of air coming from around the ball detent area. Whne the gun gets cocked you can't really hear the air anymore. Problem is their is not enough pressure after firing it once to re-cock the gun. It only fires once and that's it you have to re-cock it yourself. So seeing as how I've checked all the connections and o-rings and nothing seems to be wrong, does anyone have any advice at all for me and my friend? Thanks in advance.

lube it first. buy some paintball oil and put a few drops of it on each o-ring you see. If there's a bad seal, you'll know it instantly because it'll leak all over the place.

After that, put a fresh battery in it. that sometimes is the problem. Also check to see if the sear(the metal piece that moves ont he trigger frame) is worn out, if it's worn, you'll see that it's got a rounded edge to it.

You either have a bad battery, bad sear, low pressure, or a leak. It sounds like you either have low pressure in the tank if you can hear a leak close to the breech, or your cupseal could be dirty.

Just thought of something else. Your striker buffer is BEHIND the striker (touching the bolt cover thing) and is closest to be back of the gun as it possibly can go, right?
