Unhappy ion xe with slight leak :/ plz help

Hi i have an ion xe and it has a slight leak. I already checked all the o-rings, lubed it, cleaned the solenoid, cleaned the bolt, and cleaned the reg. I noticed my body screen was missing so i dont know if that is the cause or if a slight leak is normal for ion xe's. Thank you to anyone that can help.

i admit, having never come within 10 feet of an Ion, that I have no idea what a body screen is.

Be that as it may, it's just an unbalanced spoolie. Easy enough to diagnose. Where's it leaking from?

i cant tell excatly where from. its to small to tell. sounds like from inside the body, like near the bolt but my bolt seems to be 100%. And a body screen is a screen that is located at the top of the reg used to keep junk from the internal hoses. Thanks

o that little filter, dont worry about it, also you can not "check" o-rings, they will always look fine but there is no telling as to if they are actually sealing or not, if you have had it for a while just do a rebuild and replace all the internal o-rings. if your leak is coming from the barrel it is most likely an o-ring, if it is coming from the grip frame or anywhere between the reg and bolt then it is most likely either a hose or a banjo fitting (both of which are very cheap) take the body off the frame and the board out of the grip frame, leave all the hoses attached and gas it up, this should be able to tell you exactly where the leak is coming from
