exactly like the title says, i adjusted my lpr until there was no leak, but then there wasnt enough pressure to shoot the gun, i thought it could be vavle so i replaced but that didnt work either. Now im thinking its the noid, but that i dont have to know-how to check it. so what do you guys think it could be. and if you think its the noid then tell me how to check it.

When this happened to me it was due to a bad seal between the noid and the manifold.

Disassemble the frame and tray, but leave the asa/reg attached. Gas up the marker and see if your leak is coming from the noid/manifold area. If so, degas and continue.

Try taking the noid and gasket off, giving it a cleaning and relube, then reattaching. Make sure to attach the noid securely, but don't strip the screws by drastically over tightening.

Yeah what he said, but if that doesn't work make sure your LPR is clean and theres no clogs in the passages to the noid, I'm pretty sure thats whats wrong with my bushmaster. So check that. Be careful when you separate the tray from the body; I accidently severed the wires to my eyes when I did that.
But don't feel bad if you don't get it right away, I've been at it for weeks.

Quick question: Are you 100% sure of where the leak is coming from.

double check the noid to manifold screws and the manifold to body screws.

if that doesn't do it then replace your orings on your LPR.

If that doesn't work then I would take apart the LPR give it a good clean and re-lube.

Here's some information to help you. If the leak is coming from the noid/manifold. Then there are only three possibilities.
1. There is too much pressure reaching the noid.
2. Your noid/manifold seals are bad
3. Your noid is shot.

Therefore your trouble shooting should focus on these three areas.

If your not 100% sure where the leak is coming from. Detach your tray from your gun and then air it up. It will let you pin point the leak if it's in the tray.

I had his marker apart at my house to try and find the leak a little bit ago.

The leak is coming from the hole, im guessing its called the waste gate? Where the noid releaves over pressurized air.

Does this mean the LPR isnt ajusting or that the noid is shot? The same time we installed a vapor valve so I don't think is is the LPR.

Maby another time when we have time we'll swap the noid+manifold from his Bushmaster to mine to see if its faulty.

That's what I would recommend. My problem ended up being faulty manifold. ICD replaced it for me. It was a frustrating time.

Daniel, you need to replace the o-ring on the ram shaft. I've been telling you that for months now, lol. It's damaged (from when I last looked at it) and air some air is passing from one side to another causing the noid to vent off air. If you ever bring it over to my house i'll fix it, or I can just bring an o-ring to school tomorrow and give it to you.

It could mean
-the manifold seal is bad
-your LPR has an internal leak so the pressure is too high and is causing your noid to bleed
-your lpr o-rings need replacing cause they are letting unregulated air past and causing the noid to bleed

I'm not sure about that Demented is talking about, but he's pretty knowledgeable aboutt hese guns so give his idea a shot too.
