What if it's leaking from the front and back?
I guess I'm just screwed.

Hey everyone, so I recently bought a used 07' PMR with a bunch of upgrades off of this forum (http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=3855089) and I went to go play paintball yesterday and we could not get the marker to shoot at all. At first there was air leaking from the back bolt, so I had some of the refs/tech guys there help me lube the bolt as well as put all brand new o-rings on the bolt. This fixed the leaking issue, which I definitely thought was the issue, nope wrong... still would not fire at all. At one point I was also getting a flashing green/red light and so I put in a brand new 9-volt battery and that went away. I turned the tank in all of the way and then released it 2.5 turns and still no luck. When test firing I turned off the eyes and it wouldn't fire. I'm pretty disappointed to say the least considering the price I paid for a used PMR.

You guys have any idea what's going on? I ended up leaving my marker at the field yesterday for the owner to take a look at it. I've also contacted the seller and he promised that it worked 5 minutes before shipping it out.

If you just turn it on with no air, eyes off, and fire can you hear the solenoid clicking? If it is re-lubed, has air, eyes working, but the bolt just isn't cycling then it may be the solenoid. I would suggest cleaning and resetting the regulator too.

do everything felonious said and also check the dwell, even if you havent been playing with the settings I have seen a few people who have everything set right except dwell and if it got turned too low the noid will click but the bolt wont move.

hm, it is going to be tough without going over it in person, def return the board to stock settings....assuming it is a stock bolt I assume you have made sure everything is lined up correctly when sliding the bolt back in? that oring around the 3 holes needs to line up right.

So to review, no more leak when aired up, tank is screwed in all the way, board settings are stock, fresh battery, fresh orings and lube.....

HPR is ok? I assume the seller said it was working good when he sold it? With all the above checked only thing I can think is to recheck all the rings once more, especially if you're sure the noid is fine. Also double check all your wire connections, make sure nothing is loose, pinched or have a broken solder somewhere, I am not super familiar with the stock frame.
