Etek 2 problems, starving of air?

Hi chaps got a problem with an etek I've got, when i got it the lpr was leaking but was an easy fix I just had to change the outer orings. I've cleaned and relubed the hpr and lpr. When I gas it up I need to have the hpr almost half a turn from all the way out for the solinoid to seal and when It does it doesn't have enough umph to hit and open the poppet, the bolt seems really easy to push forward (compared to timmys and creeds I've owned) the dwells at 13 too. Ive put my hpr from my clone on it (set around 100-110 psi) and the noid doesn't seal, is it a case of a new noid or something simple restricting the flow? I've checked the hoses to the noid aren't pinched between the body and the frame as well. Fresh battery and noid clicking happily with no air as well.

Any ideas would be massively appreciated guys!

How far in is the lpr? Unsrcew the lpr allen key bolt until it is flush with the lpr housing, hope that makes sense? that should help, as I always did the same with my old ego after I cleaned it
