Low pressure chamber on my shutter

When I put my co2 onto my shutter today a lot of air came rushing out of the low pressure chamber on the front. It was on very tight and the o ring is fine. How can i fix this problem.

Well are you sure it was on all the way? Maybe this happened in the valve area? Did you specificly see the smoke comeing out of the volumizer?

You may be mistaken. It could be coming out the barrel. If so, it's a cupseal. Replace it and it should be ok. If it is the LPC, then try what fiki said: see if its on the whole way.
Im a newb so i dont really no what a volumizer or the valve area is. It came out of the thing that sticks out right below the barrel. It was on as tigh t as i could get it and it deffinatly wasnt coming out of the barrel.

Yep thats the volumizer. If it was coming out from there and it was tight then it HAS to be the Oring. Your not using a co2 oring on it are you?
i thought that was the low pressure chamber below the barrel not the volumizer
The low pressure chamber and volumizer are the same thing.

Basically just diffrent names.
actually you are all wrong...
i used to have a shutter and the same thing happened to mine...
all you have to do is go to your local shop and take the crappy macroline hose that is stock with the shutter off and have it replaced with a brand new stainless steel hose.
problem solved. no more leaks ever again.

ps its cheap and my local shop did it for free
Friend had the same problem I thought it might be the cup seal but he Replaced all the orings on his gun and it fixed it
There you go, change te cheap macroline ot ir could be a microline hose with a stainless steel hose, check the valve cupseal, and your O-rings.
check the cup seal then all the o rings on the volumizer and then the mini reg then see if it works
