Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
Dont know whats gone john. As soon as i turn the bleed screw on dive bottle its dumping all pressure from the gun out through the bleed.
Put a dab of silicone oil/gease in the filler holes, crack the bottle open on sharply and try to bleed as sharp as poss too. This may fix it.
My ignore list: <Hidden information>
ahh - that's different - non- return valve in the filler. Fill it muzzle down, that often does the trick and tap it a bit to settle the flap valve. Also bleeding rapidly also helps the air rush blow the valve back down to seal
If you do end up stripping, you can put a little spring under it to hold it closed in any position.

Ok. Did as you both said and it worked. Still though why did the gun empty itself when it was pressure locked? Was pressure locked for last 5mths until i found a tidy hammer spring and the guts to have a go. Thanks for the advice both. And tinners thanks for the info on how to change the valve. Much appreciated. Show not over till the fat lady sings though. Lets see if she hold pressure over the next week or so. Cheers guys. Chris
I have a full strip down dvd for the 707. And there is a seal replacement video on utube on how to change the seals. I learned a bit today changing the hammer spring.
So far so good. She is still holding air
