98 R/t Problems

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all,
I recently purchased a 98 custom from a friend, and it has a response trigger on it. When i gassed it up, I noticed it had a leak. (which i later found out was just a bad o-ring.)
When I was putting the gun back together, I must have over-tightened one of the screws (shown in picture, sorry i dont know what the name of it is) 

This there was no evidence that this piece broke off, so i figured the missing screw/adjuster held it into place.
After searching on the internet for a couple days I have found no luck. I was wondering if there was some sort of r/t repair kit, or part I could order directly from tippman. (there was also some sort of adjuster that came off also). I've also posted a picture of the only part I think i need. I am really hoping I dont have to order a whole new RT kit!

 Thanks in advance.
-Ethan G.
p.s. Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures.

	call tippmann and ask them for a new flow controll, if they won't give you one go to www.clippard.com and buy one.

	Thanks guys, I appreciate it very much. Also, does it just screw right into the gun? ( i know it screws into the micro line) (if you couldnt tell, i didnt recieve instructions for the rt when i bought it... so i had no idea what it was called :-x) Edited by etheR23

	Tippmann has instruction manuals on their site, I believe tippmannparts.com may have some as well. Read up and put it together!! If you still can get it right, we will be here for you! jj
