Ion Vlocity problem

[Man in Tights]

Its always the solenoid!

Seriously SMC, Humphrey, Parker, all massive engineering companies who can plough millions of pounds and some of the most talented designers in the world into designing solenoids, they make a superbly designed solenoid that is going to work well for a very long time.

When two inbred brothers from Texas decide to make a solenoid, it might be cheaper but its just not going to come out the same is it?

Skeet: the paint was matched quite well with my freak kit,

Mike: i did say in my 1st post that i fidled with my Dwell, is there any other setings on the BH board that may make this happen?

M.I.T: what am i suposed to do about the noid then??

Was it working at the walk on the other day?

If so, what have you changed since then? just work backwards and put it all back

If it wasn't working at the walk on, have you ever managed to get it work?

yeah it was working at walk-on (kind off) but yesterday at the Dartford 7s it just wouldnt work? I cant really remember what i have done to it since but im pretty sure its something to do with the Qev being blocked, i have also been told on PBnation that there may be somthing blocking the LP tubes so thats why its not shooting high enough Fps.

Im going to order a new Qev and i have asked in the classfieds for a Banjo fiting and i will try to clean out the LP hose but i may just buy some more as i think its pretty cheap

You didnt change the fire mode and accidently, knock your dwell down did you?
Dwell should be, witha QEV around 16 blips, especially in this weather.

lmfao - genius.

I guess it might be the QEV blocked, I don't really buy it and I think it's FAR more likely to be miss-set dwell. Read here why it should be set to 25 with a QEV.

I have a banjo for sale if you want it...

 

[crumpler]

ok well i tried playing with my Dwell completly, even put it up to 52 again as i was sure the Qev was blocked but no joy there, i will set me dwell at that next time buldog, thats if i ever get my ion working, im pretty sure that it must be the hoseing that is blocked now as there i no other explination to it!

 

[zxr]

can you not remove the QEV and give it a blast without it?
If thats been mentioned before, i appologise for my lazy reading

Perhaps you should stop doing things to it? A lot of the problems you've been having seem to be iatrogenic in nature

And there was a similar thread in Pb Nation's Ion section (I know, it's part of the job ) that concluded the solenoid had blown/failed, sounds plausible if you've put the input over 200psi.
