Been working on those sick tribals. One is fine mechanically and the only problem on the other I have narrowed down to the AOC. Gas it up with a guage on the front and it quickly bottoms out my 200PSI guage (assuming it's going higher)..
What I've done:
- Replaced the O-rings. The old ones looked fine too.
- The little O-ring inside the AOC body for the plunger looks fine.
- Swapped AOC into another gun. Problem follows the AOC. AOC from the other gun (the good one) works fine in either.
I believe the problem is the seat / seal on the AOC that the tip of AOC plunger pushes against. It looked bad.. I tried to nudge it out and flip it, but I suspect I only made it worse.
Couple questions...
- Does that sound like it could be the issue?
- Thoughts on how to replace that seal?
- Anyone have a stock AOC they want to give up cheap? :)
I know the easiest solution would be to nab one of Edwins (or ASPs) awesome AOC replacements... and I've HATED the stock ones since day 1.... but I was mainly trying to restore, not upgrade. :\
