FX Impact help

Air straight out the barrel is your main firing valve/stem. Sometimes just firing a few shots ( WITH air) can dislodge a piece of crud if thats what it is).

Time for warranty or some video watching maybe.

You didn't bottom the screw out, did you?? Screw out 1 rd. 

Yeah, I`d try firing the gun a few times 

I unscrew the reg manometer/gauge to bleed the air from the reg when adjusting the reg down, Ernest said not to fire the gun without the bottle in it. I know AOA said shoot it but i had to shoot it several times to bleed the air from the reg when i tried that and even turning the reg cc wise didn't work for me. Please let us know how you solved the problem

Thanks

When you tighten the bottle back down you might go a little faster. Maybe a little more pressure faster will help seal the valve.

jk

if you damaged your valve or seal none of those will help. Dont forget to warranty claim

either valve seat is broken or the seal is or the valve rod isnt screwed in all the way

Never dry fire to bleed reg side doing so valve will not seat properly or will over travel and won’t reset — it won’t happen everytime but if you want to dry fire the safe way IS to tighten down the valve adjusted CW till it’s tight then dry fire this will prevent the valve rod to over travel or just unscew reg adjustment screw 1/8 turn it will dump the reg side. 

If the valve rod isn’t flush with the valve housing do the fallowing; unscrew A20 then A17 pull and push on C1 till valve rod is flush with valve housing. If that don’t work PM me for further trouble shooting.



FX Pit Stop

This won't fix your problem but it will keep you from causing it to happen again someday...

Instead of dry firing your gun to release the air on the regulated side all you had to do is simply loosen the air gauge at the rear of your Impact about 1/4 turn or so and that will let all the air out very quickly. Then simply tighten the air gauge back up and you are done. Never dry fire any pcp without air pressure in the plenum to keep back pressure on the valve pin in order to resist and equalize the force of the hammer strike. (the Daystate electronic firing system may be the exception...). 

Find a deep socket that fits the regulator gauge and you can turn it by hand each time you need to bleed the pressure.
