right guys, when testing out my dm i noticed after a couple of games play that there was a leak, i checked the wole gun and it seemed to of come from the solinoid area, i read manual replaced the orings on the bolt sail and on the cylinder, but still it made the leak, it mentions something about a solanoid seat, wtf is that, what could be the problem and how can i fix it.

The noid seat is the part of the noid that attaches to the frame, if it is not seated correctly or some gunk has got between it, it may leak.

first, check your on/off on the front of the gun, wiggle it up and down when gassed up to see if it stops the leak. Leaks from the on/off area sound like it could be from the noid area. My gun did this out of the box.

Do you use any hybrid grips or other custom grips?

If you do then you may well have over tightened the screws and squashed the solenoid, this would make it leak as it unseats it.

The other thing is that if you take off the frame and carefully disconnect the wires from the board including the solenoid wires you should be left with the gripframe and the gun as two separate pieces.

Look into the bottom of the marker and you will see the solenoid. Carefully unscrew the two holding screws and remove the solenoid. The seal on the solenoid is on the top half and is kinda like an on off shaped rectangle. If this has been squashed then it will stop the solenoid from sealing. A common problem is actually caused by people overtightening the solenoid holding scews as they try to ensure it seals. All this does is crush the seal and actually stop it from sealing.

Ring dye europe an ask them to send you a new one and then just replace it and put it all back together. Make sure the solenoid scews are done up but not too much.

The air must be pretty thin up there Jack!

Hightower may arse! Where the fcuk do you guys come up with this stupid ****??

Hybrid grips now all come with short screws, to prevent damaging solenoids and boards etc.

You shouldnt hear the leak, when teh on off (under teh barrel) is off, ie sideways...if you do, its teh on off o-ring not sealing.

It wasnt anything to do with the on/off, its been sent back to those lovely ppl at dye to fix it for me, how very nice of them.
