Hello

I am new to the sport and have just purchased a Tippmann A-5. I put it all together today and used it for about an hour without any issues before it started to make this "farting" noise when I shot it; kinda sounding like a "burst" shot but only one paintball would come out (at the same rate of fire I think). At first I thought it was because I was out of C02, but C02 still came out of the barrel, making a "farting" sound and still shooting a ball. I'm not sure what the issue is but PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!

does it just keep firing until you grab the bolt?

it varies on and off... i'll be shooting normally and then all of a sudden is does the farting noise and i cant consecutively shoot after that... i have to re-cock the gun and fire again but still with the same farting noise issue.

and no it's just a burst of farting lol. it doesn't un controllably let co2 out and fire

1)unscrew the tank
2) put a few drops of paintball or air tool oil into the ASA where you screw the tank in
3) screw the tank back in tightly; it could be an issue that the tank is not screwed in enough
4) fire away and distribute the lubrication throughout the marker.

If it's still not working, you may just be out of CO2
