Spyder rodeo expansion chamber leak.

Very new to this paintball repair stuff, so all suggestions are appreciated!

The leak is coming directly out of the regulator adjust screw. There is a set screw in there with sharp point but it's leaking straight over it.

Attempted to take apart the expansion chamber and replaced o-rings that I saw. Tried Teflon tape and still the same problem...any thoughts on this??

The marker works great otherwise...some how during my tests it didn't leak one time and shot about 5 balls...then it started leaking again and has not stopped

Thanks!!

Hi! I have the same issue. When I attach the CO2 tank, it leaks through "35E Regulator Adjust Screw" labeled @ http://paintballtech.org/diagrams/Kingman Spyder Rodeo Manual.pdf

Here's a picture:


I tried screwing in and out the screw it's leaking through but it doesn't seem to affect the pressure which doesn't build up...

I'm not very experienced, so I'm not sure if it is an adjustment issue or something's broken?
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thank you!

ya either, your reg just needs to be rebuilt or you are over/under presurizing it, regulators typically will vent out pressure if you are overemphasizing them and dont have enough pressure to seal properly if you are underpresurizing it
