| My VM is a pain in the ***... The thing blows a cup seal every fifty shots? Is there something wrong with the valves on these things? I know the most recent one was using straight liquid through it, but it took 10 shots for it to start leaking again. Anyone have any insight? Am I not installing the valve correctly?

  | Have you changed the valve o-rings at all yet? Are you using the correct cupseal? Is the cupseal shaft sliding smoothly in the valve body?

| I haven't changed the valve body o-rings, the cup seal is a little short, and it's from a Raptor, it sealed, but it was a little short, though I got it up to field velocity running a siphon tank. It slides plenty smooth in the valve body.

| The cupseal might be too short and getting hung up on the brass insert on the valve body.Also if the valve body o-rings are worn it'll leak around the valve.

| Cocker cup seals are just as big a pain in the *** to come by locally. The three nearest paintball shops don't carry parts for guns made prior to 2003 anymore.
