Possible SP-1 problems? :S

[safeduck]

Hi, so I got my SP-1 like a week ago and its been shooting fine... but when I screwed my tank in at like 8:00 PM to just test it I could hear a hissing sound? My tank was pretty much empty so was that just the regulator trying to get enough air? any ideas? thanks.

Where was the hissing sound from?

If you heard it as you were screwing the bottle in, it could be a broken o-ring on the bottle. Had you adjusted any thing before hand or taken anything a part before you heard the hiss?

When my bottle has been low on my ion it normally doesnt fire.

Hi mate if the tank don't have enough air to cycle the marker then some of the orings don't seal properly and the air will just flow though the marker

The hissing sound seemed to be coming from the front of the marker but the tank was so low on air as soon as I put the gun to my ear the air had already run out. So I could only identify that it seemed to be coming from the front. I think I'm gonna find somewhere to fill my tank and then see if it still makes the hissing sound. (fingers crossed it wont!!)
