Ive had an A5 since April when i bought it brand new. It is An 09 model and has the factory installed e-grip. I have done some mods since then but nothing crazy. I just switched to HPA instead off CO2. For some reason it doesnt function properly on HPA but hook it back up to CO2 and it works fine. Problems include cyclone not cycling and the ocasional missfire where it doesnt re-cock. This happens in all firing modes. My mods include a JCS power tube, TechT paddles QEVH and rod, orange howitzer bolt, Fang trigger, and a drop forrward. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.

I think you'll find that the stock power tube will fix the recock problem.
If the cyclone still doesn't advance, remove the QEPH.
 
A lot of us have been through this, myself included.

its an outside chance, but you may have a low pressure HPA tank, what is the output pressure?

What TheGuy said, verify that its a high pressure output HPA tank.

Other than that, scrap the "upgrade" internals. Half the time those things just cause problems.
