Tippmann F/A help

I got a fine looking Tippmann F/A off ebay last year & have yet to
succeed in mastering it. Shoots fine in semi mode, & seems to have very
low mileage on internal parts. However in f/a mode, it immediately goes
insane-berserko-out-of-control until I unscrew the co2 to shut it down.
Adjusting the ROF pistons has no effect. They've been carefully air-bled
& I've tried different viscosity oils. Any ideas ?

How good of condition is the sear? Is it worn out at all?

You've tried different weight oils, but which weights? According to Tippmann, it should use 120weight, all weather, hydraulic fluid in the upper cylinders. Like was said, check the condition of the seers on the top mechanism and the bolt. Maybe something is rounded off, and not catching. Semi-auto should only be using one of the two seers, while full-auto uses both, IIRC.
