FX IMPACT: First Video - Changing C3 Bumper

Thanks edosan, as a new MKII owner I'm sure this will come in handy eventually.

Nicely done  

I read around here that I will take hours and you need to take down the whole impact ... the idea is to show you that is a very wrong idea and is quite easy to do... you can loctite the threads but for me teflon is fine.

jaja the first comment I got in youtube was: something is wrong with your setup if the c3 bumper get busted! jajajaja I made a mistake and press delete! ups! MADNESS! jajaja

I saw that LOL, not the case at all. Your English is far better than my Spanish, where'd you learn to speak it so well?

Had mine changed before I even shot the gun, the FX tuner here did along with swapping the valve and plenum in probably less that 20 minutes I think, nice video.

Very helpful video.

Counterclockwise to release reg pressure.

Nicely done video Edosan.

I had to take my whole gun apart to get to the c3. Cause I wasn't able to remove the metal piece that sit next to the c3. I had to take everything apart to get the whole spring, hammer, and rod out. Then I was able to clamp it down and twist the metal piece off. Your is probably loose that's why you didn't have to take the whole gun apart. But for some that fx had loctite. You will still need to take the whole gun apart.

Like I told you before... you the man when it comes to FX Impact. Well a close second anyway!! Jajaja!!! If anybody needs the 7.5mm x 1.5mm washers, I just got about 100 of them. I’d be happy to share a few. They’re only 1mm thick though. They do work and add a bit of power. Thanks Edo!

got my Impact Cerakoted!!!

Just playing. You the man when it comes to mods. Competition, yeah close second. You’ll be on top of that podium a lot sooner than most of us though! Have a good one buddy!

Wrong, if it has loctite you just need to torch it a bit (even with a lighter), very simple. I do not speak for just 1 impact experience. That is why I use teflon instead of loctite for that part. (hammer seat)

But thanks for that info, I will add a note 2 on the comments of the video.

I could have used a torch. But I didn't want to use it on a $2000 gun and damage it. So I just took the whole back of the gun apart to get the rod assembly out. Then clamps the rod down and twist the metal piece off. It was difficult to twist it off if it's loctite and still inside the gun. Didn't want to put too much force and stracth the gun. A lot easier to take the c3 out if the rod is outside the gun. But more work of course.

Haha, anyone spot the slight error during re-assembly? I said very slight too. Any plumbers or oil field workers notice it? Great video by the way and I'll save it.

I usually wrap my teflon tape with the direction of threads and it looked like he went the opposite direction. Just a habit that probably doesn't make a lot of difference if any.
