Both. I could blow through it, cocked or not, (worse when not cocked) and the co2 just runs right through it.

it could be one of the seals to the internals, my friends 98 had a problem leaking through the gas chamber. mistakes happen at the factory so check where stuff is put together, screwed, welded, whatever. get some soapy water, not to much, and put some soapy water on the area it is leaking, bubbles will form.

that happened to mine, there was something screwed up with the way the tombstone adapter fit into the body. I just messed around with it for awhile and got it working again.

I just installed the expansion kit and now when its cocked, I hear a very faint trickle of air.When I try to shoot to seal up the internals, it acts like im out of co2 and I have a full tank. Any thoughts? Also I can blow right through it when its not cocked.

I called Tippmann today and they said they would send me a new valve. But I have a game coming up this weekend. Is there anyway I can fix this problem until I get my valve?
