NightKreeper · 03-10-2010, 11:28 PM

i just realized that ive only lubed/set my LPR once since I got my Marq, and that was almost 5 months ago. am i neglecting it?

IgnoranceInABag · 03-10-2010, 11:32 PM

not sure, a guy here has shot his marq 7 for 2 years or more , he never ever lubed anything on it and never had an issue

It's been a year since I lubed my LPR, and about 10 cases since I lubed the internals, I think.

It shoots superbly, so I don't mess with it.

i guess ill just leave it alone then. good to know i can take it out of my gear bag all year and count on it.

i havent lubed my lpr since last spring. never cleaned the hpr since i got it. havent lubed the bolt in 6 cases.

is +/- 4 over the chrono.

Lubed my LPR when I first got my RL Marq back in...November I think it was. Haven't touched it since and am not going to touch it. I'm anal about maintenance so I lube my engine almost after every practice but according to Bob Long you really only need to relube the engine every 10000 balls or so.

nvghostrider · 03-12-2010, 02:55 PM

I feel retarded for buying so much lube. What to do, what to do...

PaInT mOnSt3r · 03-12-2010, 06:16 PM

i got my rapper in feb of 09 and havent rebuilt the lpr yet, and thats practicing just about every weekend give or take a few

NightKreeper · 03-13-2010, 01:52 AM

There is a table in the Victory manual that says how often you should lube parts of your marker. I think it suites for other marqs.

HPR and engine - ones a month or 10+ cases
LPR - 5 months or When consistency issues start showing up or 20+ cases

I think you can do it not so often, but wear of parts in your marker grows if you do not lube it.

Stewey956 · 03-14-2010, 01:09 PM

5cases on the bolt. 10 case on the HPR. AND 15 on the LPR. I hardly am ever able to keep track so I just lube as I feel.

tml605 · 03-15-2010, 12:58 AM

I lubed my Ion like this. But when bought Vic I made marks in my iPhone calendar, when and what part should I lube

But to lube as you feel is an option too, if you realy feel your gun, if not use number of cases.

DyePaintballFreak1 · 03-25-2010, 01:54 PM

can i use hater sauce on the marq 7 engine? and oil on the pillow bolt?
someone pm me please and let me no

Stewey956 · 03-25-2010, 02:03 PM

Hater Sauce will void your warranty. DOW55 and Tri-Flow is all you need.

NightKreeper · 03-26-2010, 12:11 AM

is it okay to use gold cup on the bolt?

Stewey956 · 03-26-2010, 12:12 AM

Mhm. Any paintball approved oil or Tri-Flow works for the bolt. Tri-Flow just lasts longer.

jmtadena · 03-26-2010, 10:10 PM

umm when i first got my Darq... i got it serviced, that was about 15 months ago.

nvr touched the LPR since then, and i lube everything every month or so. thats about 12000 balls depending on tourney, practices etc.

No problems really... my only problem is putting the engine back and it leaks cause an oring decided not to go where it was suppose to but that's an easy fix lol.
