Well, I got an A-5 about two years ago and I used to two times... The
third time when i screwed the co2 tank in the co2 started to free-flow
out the barrel... My friend thinks there is a problem with the power
tube.
Any insight? thanks |

Try cocking the gun first. The rear bolt could be pressing on the valve.

Sounds like the valve o-ring might need some oil. Is there a lot coming out? Make sure the gun is cocked when you screw the tank in or else the rear bolt might be pressing on the valve pin just enough to leak out the barrel.

There is quite a bit of air freeflowing out the barrel.. ill try
cocking it before i screw the tanks in. Do i just have to do that
every time if it works?

i tried cocking it before hand, and all that does is make it hiss besides free flowing out of the barrel and that area

Also, check to see that the tank is filled. If its nearly empty, you'll have air excaping out the barrel.
