Hi, recently I got an used spyder with a 32 degree expansion chamber and low pressure chamber. When I shoot there is this big thick cloud coming out of my barrel. I cannot see pass the cloud to see where my paintballs are going. This does not happen to any of my other friend's spyders. Their cloud is barely noticeable. Is the upgraded expansion chamber/low pressure chamber causing the problem? Thanks.

dang, idk bought that, but u def. got a problem, good luck with getting it fixed. and ur using c02 im guessing?

Sounds like you getting Liquid CO2 out the barrel. Generaly expansion chambers STOP that rather than worsen it.

Tried it without the expansion chanber on? It SHOULDNT change it but it might..... My advice would be to antisyphon your CO2 tank, or get HPA. A/S is about 10$, and should stopp all that.

just go to your local shop and ask them to look at it. i've never heard of an expansion chamber doing that. also try it without the expansion chamber like aggie said.

Expansion chamber/low-pressure chamber??? aren't they usually one or the other?

LPC is the part under the barrel and the expansion chamber is where the reg or gas-thru usually goes.

Hope that was your question..

ic...... shows how much I know about spyders. lol

LPC is the LPR of a spyder isnt it? i thnk so.

[txaggie08]

not realy.

LPC is just a hollow tube. A LPR is a regulator, usually feeding air to a solenoid or ram.
Although, the spyder LPC chamber is in the same place the low pressure reg is found on other markers.

Anyway, that cloud is CO2. It comes and goes depending on weather conditions. You can take it to the shop if you want. The suggestions offered by other people here may help you as well.

The AS tube is going to be your cheapest bet to fix it BTW. That will eleiminate 75% or so of the liquid going into your gun.

Thanks guys for the replies. When I was shooting clouds from the barrel I was using my 20 oz Co2 tank. Today I tried using my 12 oz tank and the problem was gone. The weather is hot and not humid at all compared to the day earlier. Could've it been my 20 oz tank that was causing the problem?

your shure it didnt have an A/S tube installed? it could have been the temperature difference.
