Hey guys. Was selling my gun but I don't have to now. And all this talk about paintball makes me want to play again. So I got some questions and I'll take any pointers I can. I bought a Tribal Twister back in 2000 or 2001. It was brand new. I shot only one hopper full of paint through it and it was put up. So its basically still new.
1. First thing I need to do is have my nitro tank tested. Where and how do I go about doing that?
2. And do I need a special tool other than allen wrenches to do work on it or adjust things?
3. When I first got it, it had a small leak. I fixed it with loctite. But is there something I need to replace to fix a common problem with leaks?
4. I don't have much money, but if and when I did, what should be the first few upgrades I should do to it?
5. Oh and once I get my tank tested and air it up and get some paint, what kind of adjustments should I do or should I just take it to the closest shop and let them have at it?

Again guys thanks for any help you can give me. I need it.

You should download the manual and read through it. It has descriptions on how to tune.

You need asa gauge, LP gauge, Chrony, allen wrenches, air and paint.

First place to look for hydrotesting is a local paintball store. Otherwise checkout the following links.

Bigbob thanks for posting the links....I was too lazy to look them up, so I didn't add them to my post.

You can also try Dive shops....
