My 98 Custom is SCREWED UP!!!  Every time I have screwed in my C02 tank, it immediatly leaks out air where it connects to the gun.  I have replaced the o-ring, switched tanks, lubed it up... but nothing has changed.  I haven't screwed with it in terms of moving the connection from its standard connection on the bottom of the grip.  WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!??!

Hi, welcome to the forum. Check for messed up threads or shoulder in you ASA (no dents, chips, burrs or cross threading). Check bottles for same. Check your bottles on another 98C . If they don't leak its definitely your ASA.  Retap, file, or sand as needed (very carefully) If not replace ASA.

and also get an extra o-ring, and place it into the inside of the ASA. it will seal up very nicly. if not, a new ASA is under $10.

Check and see if you need a new tank O-ring or see if you need to put some teflon tape on the hose threads that go into the ASA
