I recently got a tippman 98 flatline I just fully installed it today. I went out shooting it in the noght and I found myself haveing to pull the bolt back every other time. my fps is around 240 I think. I put plenty of oil in the barrel adapter. can anyone help, has anyone had this problem also? ------------- jeff |

Well its most likely either your ball detent, or the bolts holding your power tube to the frame of the gun are loose. It would sputter if it was the powertube scenario though. ------------- 
The Evil Thong Girl had something called "Motion Lotion"...it tasted pretty good, I ate the entire contents of the bottle thingy..-Hell's Oracle |

If you haven't touched anything else when you put your flatty on, make
sure your c02 tank is full, I doubt you took your detent out to install
the flatty, no need to. Are you sure your shooting at 240?
are you running any other mods, rt/lpk, list them if you are.
