I just installed a TechT zero kick hammer and fang trigger on my 98act.
It fires fine with no air,but when i put air to the gun and pull the trigger it goes Crazy.
It goes into super fast automatic and i have to mess with the bolt handle or disconnect the air
to get it to stop firing.I also have a tippman r/t installed.The r/t has been working great before i
installed the TechT products.Do i need to re tune the r/t
any help would be great.
Thanks,
Dave

Try checking out the sear that holds the bolt in place, those can be worn down after long periods of play and they ware down alot faster with a r/t trigger installed. Also because you have a new bolt in there, there may be less surface area on the aftermarket for a shorter and lighter trigger pull but that combined with a worn down sear will cause it to do that. Just check and make sure the sear has a pretty good edge on it and not rounded or chipped in any areas. One other thing to check would be to make sure there is no debris imbetween the pin and the hole of the sear that fits around it, that can cause it to keep firing sometimes. Good luck, hoped this helped a bit.

I would try retuning the R/T first.  If that doesn't work, open up the marker and make sure everything is properly installed.
