first of all, where is the leak coming from? if it sounds like it is coming out of the power tube/back of the gun then your tank may be empty. believe it or not the orings will not seal below a certain pressure and if the gun is not cocked, the rear bolt will be resting on the valve pin holding the valve open. if your tank is full and its coming out of the front of the gun, take the tank out, put 4-5 drops of oil in the hole in the asa, screw tank back in and dryfire about 20 times. check your hoses, you may need to take them off and wrap them in teflon tape. if the leak is coming from the cyclone feed, i dont know enough about a-5s to tell you how to fix it...

From the valve?? where on the marker does the leak seem to be coming from.. Around the ASA-Tombstone? out of the barrel? from the reciever halves?

stop asking questions, let him explain it on his own. if he wants help he will ask his own questions and give us more details than that

look if you just say "my gun is leaking omg fix it thx bye" we're not going to help you. the more details you give us the more we can help you and the sooner you can get your gun fixed.

edit: so you posted while i was typing this but read that for future reference ^

Just make sure your remember EXACTLY how parts came out so you put them in the same way. or it may get worse than an air leak problem
