TPX Air-Leak Issue

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

   Okay, I just disassembled my TPX for the first time. I'd bought it used and it worked quite well for the most part.

Sadly now that I've reassembled the marker I have a fairly major air leak to content with.

When I attach a tank through the remote line adapter air just starts leaking out of the back portion of the marker. Inserting a 12g leads to the same result.

I'm fairly new to maintenance on my own markers but am hoping that someone here with some experience could give me a little help, or even direct me to a video of someone correcting a problem such as this.

Simple is gold here, as again, I'm fairly novice with this type of work. That said, I'm a quick study and willing to learn.

Any help out there?

	First off when working on a new marker check with diagram to make sure you are not missing anything. ] If you are missing any major parts you can look here for TPX replacement parts If you are having leaks out of the back of the gun more than likely you only have a damaged gas-line oring TA20050 but your best bet would be to replace all orings at once with a TPX oring kit which includes 5 of the TA20050 orings let me know if that doesn't help
