| As others have suggested, put everything back stock. If it doesn't work then take it back to the shop from which you got it. There should be some kind of warranty on it still since you just got it? |

Your "mate" summed it up perfectly. Anti-siphon sounds exactly like the problem. Anti-siphon is like a bent straw. When your tank is mounted horozontally, the bottom half is liquid and the top is the gas. The bent straw-like tube, when installed correctly, points into the gasous part of the tank, drawing only gas and making your gun more consistent. In your case it sounds like the tube is pointed into the liquid, drawing liquid in your gun instead of gas. You dont need to go back to stock, just either ditch the anti-siphon (iIwould reccomend this, I personally dont care much for the design) and buy a palmers stab or go to a proshop and have them fix it. ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |
