I hope you can get a hog or two Keith! Enjoy the hunt because the real work comes after you pull the trigger.
Thanks! This morning the leak has grown to the point that I can now discern where it's coming from. It is leaking out between the upper and lower receivers behind the mag slot. To me this in indicative of a valve O-ring leak. Air is not leaking out of the TP/barrel.That's good news and nothing unexpected with a PCP. All I need to do now is sort out what O-rings are needed, and what's the best way to disassemble to repair the issue. I have already broken the gun down to repair a cocking bolt issue, so I am somewhat familiar with some assembly of it. I also have the schematics downloaded from the AAA site, but will send an email to Tom for parts and advice.
How are you going to tighten the shroud to tension the barrel now?
I know you had a leak but did you have to degas the air cylinder & how do you degas the Slayer?
I cleaned up the valve, replaced all valve O-rings, and have the valve reinstalled. It's quite the task to do this job. The parts are somewhat fragile and the tolerances are very tight. So far, no issues or scratches detected. I did have to go and buy a strap wrench to bust loose the Ti reservoir. It was on there very tight.One thing to note about the previously posted valve image is the three outer/external rubber O-rings used. According to the AAA valve diagram, they are suppose to be polyurethane O-rings. I'm not sure what happened on the last rebuild, but I have installed polyurethane O-rings as stated in the diagram in these locations. Hopefully they'll last longer and keep the Slayer's uptime running longer.I now have the reservoir filled to 3000 psi. I'll check it in the morning to see how it looks.
