Title: BAM B-50 fill check valve
Post by: MartyB on July 02, 2014, 03:05:20 PM

I'm looking over options on tethering my B-50 for bench shooting.   One thing I've noticed so far is that according to my flying dragon pump, it takes 3k+ psi to click open the check valve.  Even if the tube is. Down around 2300.   It won't do me any good to tether at 2500 if that won't open the valve.
Any other B50/51 owners experience this?

Am I just bleeding the line to quick and that is seating the valve too hard, or is there something else I need to check?

pull the fitting out, clean and re install.
make sure the screen is not gummed up, or cracked/broken
