| i see an oring, but when you connect the tombstone thing to that valve opening, how could it not leak? i tried plugging the tank in and it leaks out of the front of the vavle (to the barrel) and a small amount back down, how do i fix this? does anyone have a blow up of the a5 valve? |

| basically when you plug the air in, most of it leaks to the barrel while a small amount leaks through the tombstone, none stays in |

Oil the valve o-ring. Make sure the valve internals are in place too.
