I have a slight hiss coming from my gun when I energize it. I've replaced the valve body and snooped the gas line, but found no leaks on it. Any Ideas as to what it could be?

Check the flux capacitor first. Thats the main leakage after energization.


Or I would double check that the gun is cocked before airing it up.

Use soapy water to find the source of the leak.

The Flux Capacitor in my marker was a notorious leaker until I found Mighty Putty on an infomercial!  Just cut it, knead it and put into place and it's sealed forever!
