Start the timing process from scratch. Since yours is already pretty close to being timed right it shouldn't be that bad.

Re: oh sorry forgot to mention......
no only when the trigger is held back.Originally posted by Inferno
Didn't see this post
All the time?
One question, why are you holding the trigger back long enough for it to leak?
Are you just playing with the backblock?

Other then the leak is the cocker behaving itself?
You may have a faulty bomb as thats exactly what mine did! Also the Bomb 3 way has a very short throw so is a little harder to time.

Apart from that and the fact that is horrifically un-efficient, yeah its behaving itself.

I just thought that the leak may have been the reason I was getting poor gas efficiency

If you have an adjustable front reg dial it down a bit. Sounds to me like you're running too much pressure thru pneumatics is all. If that doesn't work then reposition length on timing rod to where you have no leak. Then check and see where during trigger pull sear releases the hammer compared to when the pneumatics start to cycle. If too close together all you'll need is a slight adjustment to hammer lug. Uh Oh, next set of questions.
Visit Ravi's site for complete rundown.
PS--has nothing to do with gun's general efficiency.
I reduced the pressure in the front reg but now the gun is half pulling and not cocking properly.
However the leak has gone completely. Should I tighten the spring behind the cocking thingy?Sorry bout the questions but if you don't ask people who know more than you about stuff then you never learn,
oh thanks for that web page very helpful.

1--what did you lube 3-way shaft with? (If you didn't do it the first time use Vaseline or the like) (Did you reverse hose order?)
2--dial up reg until ram cycles sufficiently to set the hammer. If it is still leaking loosen set screw that locks collar to the timing rod and begin turning it quarter turns at a time, firing, and checking result. (Don't recall which end it was leaking from but it should be quickly apparent to you if you need to turn collar clockwise or counterclockwise.)
