2k5 Timmy

[John C]

Its a common problem that the manufacturers are aware of. (on the tech course they recommend you grind the spring flat yourself if you get a the scoring problem)
Its not an issue on every one. But its quite common.

Hmm ok fair enough

Also on another note, my gun is NOT as efficient as i read it would be...

I have fired off maybe <200 shots in the garden and used 1.5k PSI from my tank, is this due to a bad setup?

Since you bought the marker i was going to add to my collection (didn't have enough money ) i'll give you some help lol

Could you post the board settings?

Make sure the barrel size matches the paint.

Also check out the orings on the bolt and ram for wear. To remove the ram you should remove the bolt and then unscrew the cap at the back and the ram should slide out.

If you need to replace the orings then you'll need to get 2 types of lube Dow 55 and tri flow. Plus a full oring kit. All theses you can order from america

(I will tell you Timmys are good if you keep em maintained)

Well tbh i am just using reballs in the garden at the moment. I am using the standard 12" bob long barrel. .689 i think.

The board settings are set the same as what are suggested in this video

I have taken the gun apart and checked stuff and it all looks in good condition, O rings on bolt and ram look good.

I have no yet had a chance to use my gun with a chrono so it could possibly running hot so that may explain why its using so much air

Reballs will use more to push them out the marker unless you've lubed them abit.

Sorry not got time tonight to watch all that vid tonight

Use the pdf standard settings

Also the guage on the side of the marker should be set at about 90 psi max depending on the lube and condition you should be able to run it lower than that easly

Hi mate, i've found the settings i use, apparently the most efficient for this gun
Dwell 9.0ms
BIP 1.0
Bolt Forward/Delay 15ms
Debounce 5
Mbounce 1

running at approx 80psi

No lube on the reballs, didnt realise that they would use more air that standard paintballs

Cheers mate

You should try and use reballs in a rotor. You get the same problem as theres to much friction

That might also explain why my Halo V35 is not working correctly then, its spins for a bit, loads a few balls then it just kinda jams up and flash red / green.

Ob, do you own a Timmy and if so do you just use the standard settings?

Yea i own one or two (Dragon 2.5, Naughty Dogs, GZ, Dark, Alias, Ripper 2) Also building a Lasoya atm
All have diffrent boards, rams, bolts, detents, so on... so they all have diffrent settings.
