alright, check this. I got a new power tube for my 98c. The aluminum one. I had a local sporting goods place change out all the internals from the tube. Right now it fires, but every few shots it will just go plain crazy. Ive oiled, and re oiled everything, checked fit, polished, messed around with velocity, nothing helps. Yall got any ideas?

sounds a lot like loose or missing valve screws. try tightening them , but do not overtighten.

These guys are right on the money, I think. Sounds like valve screw problems.

If that isn't it, I'd give Tippmann Support a call/e-mail. Hold onto the aluminum one, that's special, when they ask you to send in the marker for (free) repairs.
