Output Valve Problem
Ok, so i recently bought a WE HiCapa and it shoots fine but there seems to be something wrong wiht the output valve.
If the magazine is full and i shoot this doesnt happen, but if its the last shot of gas out of the mag, the output valve stays depressed and basically i can't fill the magazine back up because the output valve is open and the only way to close it is with pliers. So basicaly the problem is that the valve stays open, has anyone else experienced this? |
Empty the mag of gas, drop a few drops of silicon oil in the gas output hole, and a couple on the valve "button" making sure oil sinks in. Depress and release the valve button a few dozen times, see if that helps fix the problem.

Ok true i'll try that. The wierd thing is that if i push the button down with my finger, right before it gets stuck it clicks.......
|
I had a similar problem with my hicapa mag after I dropped it in sand.(Splatters) The silicone oil works, If not remove the valve and clean it in alcohol.
|
K thanks so much for the help, i worked the silicone lube in and its perfect now.
|
Yay, I win! Hehe, actually, YOU won since it worked for you on the cheap!
|
:( Actually its a tie, we're heading into overtime. The silicone oil seemed to work for a few minutes but now its getting stuck again... everytime it gets stuck i gotta grab a pair of pliers and pull it back out, seems like theres a notch or something that keeps it down. I don't even have a valve remover tool so i can't really take a good look. Any other suggestions?

Creative and careful use of needle nosed pliers is what I use to get "output" valves out. Careful not to mar the brass, but works well. Maybe you have a slight burr on the valve? Light filing of all parts, grease in white lithium and you might fix it.
