Shooting Hesitation

Dylan Ike · 12-24-2007, 10:14 PM

My vibe that I just got hesitates when im shooting it. it will shoot about 7 times and then stop and if i keep shootin it fires randomly. There is a beeping sound that goes off when the gun is suppose to fire well when i am shootin its like this:

shoot-shoot-shoot-shoot-shoot-shoot-shoot-beep-beep-beep-shoot-shoot-beep

its got that hesitation there. I was wondering if its a trigger adjustment or a velocity. or does it need to to be worked with a broke in a little more cause it seems to be gettin better. Anything would help. I gotta a tournament on new years need help asap. thx.

If you are running hpa, make sure it is running the hpa dwell,
and if you're running co2, make sure you are running the co2 dwell setting.

Its the battery.. The battery that came with my SP-1 was not strong, and had the exact same symptom. Replace it with a brand new one, and also don't store it with the battery plugged in.

yea, i replaced my battery and its good now. im gettin the 11 bps. lol. but now another problem. im going to be playin on new years, and so i was outside prepin it and all and adjusting my velocity cause in the manual it says not to run the vibe on 300fps. well i moved my velocity a little bit down. cause it was peelin the bark off the tree and it was shootin hard. well when i moved my velocity it started leekin out of the top of the e grip. whats the cause of this? the only way i CAN get the leek to stop is to turn the velocity all the way down.

also. where do i make sure i am running the right settings for the hpa or co2.

Not sure about your leak problem. But to check and adjust your dwell,
plug in your battery and hold your on/off button at the same time. It will blink once for co2, and twice for hpa.

well this is booty. idk what it is. does anyone know why my vibe leaks when i move my velocity up. its leakin out of the top of the e grip.

I would remove the bolt, clean and grease the o-rings, and put it all back together as this will sometimes fix some types of leaks, although I'm not sure if this would cause a leak in the area you mention.

Dylan Ike · 12-25-2007, 04:57 PM

I took it apart already and everything is there. all the o rings are on and in good shape. and its all hella greased so Idk. Imma return it in exchange.

You can actually store it with the battery on. It does not have a capacitor on the board. That is why there is a slight drain on the Ions.

As far as a leak in the e-grip... weird. Call tech support. I personally have not had any problems. I would say your leak may be due to the pressure being too high. And where is it leaking from?

Mr.Blackout · 01-03-2008, 04:08 PM
