Yesterday I went out to shot my gun to see if it was working good but there was a weird noise coming from the tombstone. It was a little tapping noise but the gun shot fine. Then i pushed on the tombstone & it started to hiss. It then stopped a few minutes later. Today I checked it & it is still hissing. I can't bring it to where I bought it becuase they need to call a guy in for it & that will take days. I need it for sunday. Any help?

Open the gun up, oil everything, and check your o-rings. This usually fixes leaks. |

Remove the tombstone and put a drop of oil or some thin grease on the o-ring. Carefully slide the tombstone back in, taking care not to let the o-ring get pushed out of place.

make sure the O ring in the Valve did not come loose.

Thank you very much! Its working great now! I just took out the tombstone & unscrewed it to check the o-ring which looked fine, then assembled it & tried it & it was fine.
