My kalibrgun colibri’s bleed valve has a slow leak and I can’t figure how to seal it. I’ve tried permatex, pipe dope, teflon tape and etc. Has anyone dealt w a similar issue and if so, what can you recommend?

None of my guns have a bleed valve & don't think I'veever seen a GUN with one. Not sure what you mean. Pictures?

Sorry, I must not be using correct terminology. It’s a screw for the tank that allows you to bleed out and empty the tank.

Item 21 is either missing or is damaged. It is a little ball, probably rubber.
In a pinch, you might get by with a little offcut from an O-ring.

I’ve seen them leak even with the ball. You can use a piece of Delrin under the ball as well

Weather you us O-ring or Delrin: apply a thin coat of divers grease.
Kinda like a thin coat of oil on an oil filter, This has worked for me in the past.
