Received my new Dreamline yesterday. When it arrived it only had about 50 bar of pressure. I had filled it yesterday afternoon to 230 bar. Checked it this morning and its down to just under 200 bar. A little disappointed, have not even shot it yet. Will be contacting Utah Airguns on Monday to see what they have to say. Bummer!
New Dreamline not holding air
- Thread starter redtrucker61

Sadly my Dreamline did the same thing when I received it. I too contacted and sent it back to Utah. It was returned within a week and after I inquired.... was told the fill nipple was not tight enough.... easy fix. A little dab of soapy water around the nipple should tell you and with "slight" tightening, save you some frustration and lost shooting time.

Mine is the classic with air tube and fill probe. Last time I looked it was down another 10 bar. So that’s 40 bar of air in about 17 hours. Will be calling them on Monday when I get a chance. Just wish they would have checked it out before shipping it.

Sorry redtrucker61, I CLEARLY had a "senior moment" and was thinking of another of my guns with a fill nipple.... After reading your reply and actually removing the endcap on my Classic I noticed what I MEANT to say, it was the gauge threads leaking. Maybe give that a soap suds try.

( you really shouldn't have to) BUT, with a little effort you should be able to find the leak with some soapy water.. Some Dawn dish soap in an old bottled water bottle with a "pin" hole in the top...

I did find the leak. It was the little black screw at the bottom of the air tube. The tech at Utah airguns had me snug it up a little. That seemed to stop the air bubbles. I filled the gun again and I’m going to let it sit over night and see if it holds.
