LV1 Random Air Leak

[Robo]

Hello, bought myself an LV1 a year ago, havent played since i bought it.

I gassed it up last night and it was leaking air internally. Give it a good service and lube and still happened. I manually moved the bolt about 10 times forward and back and the air leak went away or to the point i could no longer hear it.

Any suggestions on possible cause

the orings on your rammer will be the likely cause.

Hi,
It could also be attributed to a bit of dirt on the sealing interface between the Exhaust Valve and the Valve Guide.
Moving the rammer, and consequently the bolt, might have dislodged that thus stopping the leak.
