causes for inconsistent cocker

my buddy got a evolution and was a train wreck when he got it had a new evo valve put in and retimed but the gun is still anywhere from 200-280 just wondering where to start first? usual suspects i would assume paint/barrel or hpr/lpr but just wondering whats the most likely culprit before we go messing with anything

thanks guys dont flame im a noob

make sure the gun is timed correctly,
Set the LPR high enough,
oil the gun,
clean out the regs,
sweetspot it,

these are the "If youve already checked the simple stuff tips"

make sure the ASA/tank is in all the way.
check to make sure the bore0paint match is good.

paint/barrel, then ivg/reg setting, the springs may be bad also

I can say for certain that if you have a working cocker that shoots just fine you are one of the three, or all of the above. 1- you are not an idiot. 2- you know someone who is not an idiot. 3- you have enough money to pay someone who is not an idiot. - jonotwist:

I had a problem with inconsistent fps because I had a screw in too tightly in my bottom line on/off attachment.

^^^Using a snug paint to barrel match is probably the most important thing for consistancy. The Freak should help a lot. Today I stepped up to the chrono with my half-blocked Trilogy Sniper, using my .682 sleeve in my Freak, and here was the readout on the chrono: 289, 289, 289, 290. At which point I went onto the field and proceeded to do what I do best....

Yeah I knew exactly what was causing the problem though because it was working before I pulled the screw out. Also, do any of you guys use locktite/some sort of adhesive for sealing threads rather than teflon tape? I've always used teflon tape but the previous owner used something that makes it hard as hell to pull off (makes me wonder why anyone would ever use anything other than teflon tape).

blue loctite works great, its pretty easy to break loose and looks much better than teflon tape. if you get too much on you can just wipe it off.

although if you buy new fittings they come with that yellow stuff on them that can be pretty hard to remove if it still has a lot on it.
