Okay, i traced the problem to the front of the gat for certain. On the manifold, where the 3 LP hoses are. The one for the rear part of the ram has a large amount of air coming through (with the ram disconnected), but when i try to fire the gun, no air goes to the front hose to re-cock it.

My personal thoughts are that the front barb (i think thats what its called, the LP hose fitting) could have grit or something in it?

Anyone think it's possible/likely?

Cool, If it's in the barb that's okay. If it were to be in the QEV, is it easy to clean, or worth just buying new ones?
Was going to say, either barb is blocked, hose crimped or QEV stuck.

Be careful with barbs...heat em first if you can as they should be thread locked in.

QEV. Get a pair of adjustables and a pair of grips.


Grip the ROUND face of the QEV, with the hole in with the grips.

Then rotate the square part with the adjustable spanner.

Hook out the cone shaped rubber valve...clean and lube.
