Compression problems with air nozzle on shaft

Jeffleon · April 27th, 2009, 00:16

Hey guys well i have an air leak whenever i put the air nozzle on on the cylinder head shaft. the compression is fine when i just plug the cylinder shaft with my finger but when i attach the air nozzle it leaks. ive tried silicone grease and it worked for like the first 2 shots and then it leaked again. Would a Nozzle with an O-ring inside (specifically the guarder air nozzles) fix this leak combined with the silicon grease?

There's not much you can do there. If it's a slow, minor leak it's fine. If it's really bad there's no option but to switch out to a different nozzle.

If several different nozzles don't work, you may consider switching the cylinder head.

If there is an oring in there, you can try to pick it out and re-lube it. But any improvements will probably be temporary.

Best of luck,

the AEG is a TM m4, The nozzle doesnt have an o-ring which i think is the cause of the leak.

The nozzle goes back and forth with every shot....it's going to wear.

Try a Modify M4 airseal nozzle...it should work fine.
