The problem I am having with my tippmann is some of the balls gimp(dont shoot as far). I have checked my C02 it still has plenty of air in it. I was wondering what the problem could be....?

More info needed.

First thing on a -98 is to check the valve screws. These should hold the valve snuggly to the frame. If you have taken your marker apart this is the most likely answer.

You may also be getting a little shoot-down if it is happening in rapid fire. This could be due to you drawing in some liquid CO2 or coul dbe from a partially blocked airline.

Without more specific information as to when it happens that is all I can guess.
