dits issue

[desertT1]

okay, so i got a chance to go play the other day and after the fourth hour or so the dits died out. it sounds a lot like the 'bolt not moving' thread, but a little different. i was playing and all of a sudden i would only get 2-3 shots spaced every second or so. then it wouldn't shoot for 10 seconds, then nothing. i took everything apart and lubed/checked it. when the hammer was out, it would shoot the hammer forward, but nothing with it in the gun or with the bolt attached. i just looking at it and i got one shot and then nothing. listening to it it sounds like it is leaking a very little from the front adjustment screw on the micro rock. i put my finger over it and it is leaking a very little, but not enough to make the little squeaking sound like your palms over your mouth.

1) what should i use/do to mkae the lpr stop leaking?
2) any guesses with the gun. it didn't look like there was a yellow light like in the 'bolt not moving' thread.

thanks guys

I just started a thread regarding the Micro Rock.
Order a rebuild kit from Palmer's Pursuit Shop, http://www.palmer-pursuit.com/techpages/rock-manual.htm

thats prolly it

have you checked your battery?

Also you BIP (ball in place) an occurrence caused by eye's not seeing the ball. Which in the case of the Dits, can easily be fixed by adding a bumper on the ram? The bumper acts as a spacer, that helps move the bolt forward. Usually, three mm is a decent change for best BIP.

i still have the bumper that you sent me, but i wasn't able to disassemble the ram. maybe it's time you round 2. also, if my micro rock is leaking from the front where the adjustment screw goes in is that what i'd need that rebuild kit for?

on a side note. i did just check the battery. i took the old one out and as soon as the new one touched the terminals the red light went on. i tried this again with the old one and no light. that's a good sign. i put one ball in the breach with no air and the solenoid is clicking now with every pull. yet another good thing. was think that the reason that i didn't check the battery was because of winter saying that he went through 56k or so rounds/pulls. i' ve not gone through that many rounds, but i have heard a lot of clicking while the imagination is at work.

i'll gas it up in a bit and see if the problem is solved, but it's still a bummer about the micro rock.

if the micro rock adjusting nut is leaking, before you go for a kit, try some teflon tape on the screw.
Hopefully the battery is the other fix, if so, qudos to Team Ace of Spades.
