Please give me a little help...

Right, as some of you may know I am in the process of building an Impulse. I am buying a very max flo tomorrow, and was wandering what should come with it, what i mean is what do i need to attch it to the body of the impulse? Do i need a vert ASA adapter? Please could someone explain this to me as im really confused, this is proabably really basic but im learning
Cheers guys

yeah your gonna need an ASA adapter that it screws into, either a vert or 15 degree one.

depends which max-flo you are getting. The later vert max-flo's are screw in, and need a standard thread ASA.

The earlier "Conversion" Vert max-flo's take the low pressure side of a max-flo reg and mount it onto the front of the gun. If you have bought one of these second hand from someone then it should have all the bits you need.

ian i just got the part that screws into an asa, he kept the asa, it was froma strange impy and he needed the asa to screw a gas thru into, though i would of got the matching bottom line too but i didnt

In that case you need to get hold of the impulse ASA, probably going to need the ASA gas through screw, safety valve, blanking screw for the extra guage port also.

Phone smart parts and they'll sort out the bits you need. Shouldn't cost too much.

i do have a gasthru and it is attached to a black asa, it doesnt have a gauge on it but two screws are on it, what is the difference between an impy asa and another manufacturers?is the safety valve the little gold coloured thing?i have seen then on the front end of impys or on the grip, can they be placed in numerous places?cheers for the help

As long as it's between the reg and the solenoid, you can put it where you like, no comments please.

ahh so it is like a safety measure incase the input pressure is too high the thing will blow and not allowing the high pressure to reach the solenoid and kill it,lol

hit the nail on the head...not all impys have em tho, my voodoo didnt have one on, just be super careful not to run too much pressure into it......

you can also locate the over pressure valve on the port on the rear of the marker

Impy ASA's are different as they use a hollow bolt to attach to the gun. This doubles as the fixing and the primary air passage into the valve chamber.

Those little gold or silver thingys' can go just about anywhere. On impulses built with a full max-flo rig, the safety valve is on the reg. not the gun itself.
