Empire Axe transfer tube problem.

[tombut716]

was there anything loose inside the grip frame. I had the same thing and i found the solenoid had blown!

Thanks you all very much for the replies.

I put new orings on the transfer tubes males and female, and had a fiddle with the transfer tube piston, but could not make it move. I put it all back together and now it seems to be working! Sometimes when I air it up it does seem to leak for about half a second until it seals and it's fine. Hopefully it will be ok!

Appreciate all the replies!
Thanks again!
Nathan.

Atleast it seems sorted. The 'piston' is under spring tension, but mine didnt require great force to pull upwards, as i say i used my teethe. X

That same piston was a problem on one of our team edition axes, you can take the tube out insert an Allen key inside & lube it like that.

I tried really hard to get the tube out using an Alan key but couldn't get it out. I didn't wanna go too heavy on it. Weird!

Thanks again for the help guys!
