Dye throttle reg leak

[jont]

Hi,

I've got a leak coming from the release pin on the reg. The bottle is fine when attached to my marker, but slowly leaks when unscrewed.

Where can I get this repaired? I located in Bournemouth.

Cheers lads.

It`s only an "o" ring on the pin itself, they go from time to time, It`s not a problem to repair but the bottle must be out of air to do it, the top simply unscrews, If you can`t do it maybe get yourself to Ambush Paintball at Botley which is near you , I`m sure anyone would fix that for you, the reason it`s ok when you screw it onto the Gun is because it flows direct into the gun which in it`s self is what it`s supposed to do.

So the reg just unscrews by hand? Never tried before. Figured it was simple but didn't like to take the risk. Assuming in can simply depressurise by pushing the pin in?

Thanks for the help. Appreciated.

We are talking about AIR arnt we , it`s a different story with CO2

Some of the throttle regs need to be unscrewed before you can take the cap off which contains the main reg. It'll usually be the smaller yellow o-ring that has blown underneath the piston stack found in the reg, if it's not that then it may be the bigger one but change them both if you can. All else fails, email eurotech@dyeprecision.com

Hey guys, can you clarify which part of the reg unscrews and which screws (if any) need undoing before hand. It's a slightly older throttle.



Thank gents, can't get the thing to budge!

the screw holes just above where your gauge and burst disc on the reg top are will need unscrewing, there may be 4 or four of these around the circumference of it. make sure the bottle is fully decompressed before you take it apart.
