It could not be getting enough air. 

What is your setup?  Do you have LPK?

I think wider hoses might help.  Also upgrading it doesn't hurt at all.

umm ya check to see if the hose posibly got pinched, but ya the upgrade or the oil.  if you get the upgrade  the guy at you pro shop will make sure it spins

yeah, since the gun is operating at a lower pressure, the cyclone is getting starved. call Tippmann and ask them for the low-pressure hoses. that should make a difference...

When i bought the low pressure kit it came with the porper hoses for the feeder, should i replace them ?

I think its the valve on the feeder, not sure tho but they have the new lighting rod for the feeder so ima upgrade to that and a vortex mod for the feeder hopefully should solve the proplem.

thnx guys
