How would you fix a Shocktech Tippmann A5 Drop Forward w/ Dovetail ASA?

The problem is that it is leaking and I can't get it off so I can look at it.

I'm not really sure but I think it's the asa itself

^^^ Not helpful. Does it have an on/off? Is the air coming out around the hose or around the bottle? This is the type of stuff that is useful.

Check the oring that is around the threads of the tank. Most likely culprit.

It's not the O-rings. It might be the O-ring the goes into the gun or the screws that hold the asa onto drop bar.

Trying to help you, but honestly it's a bit tough as I can't figure out what you are saying. Perhaps it will help if you post up a pic of the marker with the drop forward asa and point to where you think it's leaking. if you are having a hard time figuring it out, you can fill sink up with water and dip the parts in to see where the air/co2 is coming from. Another method is to take marker oil and put drops of it around where you think it's leaking to pinpoint the leak. Obviously you have to gas the marker up to use either of these methods. I know of no asa that could possibly leak from the mounting screws that attach the ASA to the marker or drop forward.
