my Tippmann 98 custom has a response trigger, a expansion chamber, and a cyclone feed.

i recently took it apart, (i found my earlier problem of it not cocking back all the way. a stretched o-ring on the rear bolt )

i found while repairing my first problem, that the section of the bolt where the banjo T screws in was cracked. i super glued the crack.(not the best idea). i think this is my problem for my response trigger and cyclone feed not working... on no air in my tank ( or not enough air). i have another bolt capable of an adaption of a response trigger. i have a question. how do i replace the bolt? the parts in the original bolt seem to be glued in. can someone tell me how to get the bolt parts into the new one? thanks for taking the time to read through my cry for help with whatever gramer or punctuation errors i may have.

When you say "bolt" do you mean "powertube?" The valve inside shouldn't be glued in, but the braided steel hose has loctite on it which requires excessive force or heat above 325* (i think) to remove it. Then just push out the valve.
