make sure the lpr adjuster screw is flush with the lpr body....................if the 08 lpr is the same as the 07's take out the whole lpr boy and replace the two o-rings on the body.
it worked for me.

Dwell @ 14.5, LPR 1 turn in from flush (if the marker has had plenty of paint through it) lube the the usual o rings (rammer etc) if its still iffy change your paint (try a few brands... i would recommend a high quality ball for example proto or 1 of the draxxus range) if its still a but funny follow the manual on how to lube and service both the regs :D

i think im right in saying as well that changing the battery could potentially help.

Yip you most certainly are thats the first thing to try regardless of what it shows on the meter (infact try 2 just to be sure and make sure they are a decent brand and brand spanking new) :D

Unscrew the LPR cap and look at the end of the piston that is in there.

If the piston is brass, it should have a small round black seal IN, the thin end.

If it is not there, or is loose, you will have problems. Sometimes you look at it is actually stuck to the face of the LPR.

Speek to planet if that has happened or get a Piston kit.

finally someone with sense.

dont go messing with your lpr, your dwell. stripping your marker down to bare bones. check your battery, then if its still off, contact planet/a QUALIFIED ego tech.
