I wouldn't recommend it. It doesn't seem to last long, well it didn't for me atleast. If you like haters get marmalade. It performed well for me at xball 5 and outlasted dow 33. My favorites are a toss up between marmalade and lurker just because of the longevity they provide between necessary maintenance.

Everyone has their own opinions on lube though. It'll work but won't last as long. Thats the basics of it.

Jep i done mine today. And I had trouble to brake loose that screw. When I screwed it in the loctite from the treads came loose and chipped. So jea thers loctite on the treads.

And regarding the Manifold screw i ajusted it like this.
"To make the gun softer on paint you just need to turn in the manifold screw. By doing so you will sacrifice some ROF. Usually what I do with this, set your board 2 BPS higher than what you will will be playing at and turn the screw in until you hear it starting to choke. Back the screw out a half a turn and drop your ROF and you should be good to go."

Works great but occasionally i get FSDO with the militia lube. Ill try hater souce next.

I set mine to the max ROF, tuned the screw til it was slower than 10, and took it out to where it was above 15 and where i liked it... it will sustain about 16bps... then make sure to cap the board again

more than likely you are in need of a rebuild, id go ahead and replace the o-rings on the firing assembly and the o-ring inside the firing can, clean it, lube it and put a case through it on the same settings, you should be fine after that.................

it seems to me that everyone is around the same settings on dwell 12 to 14 ms and three to four turns in on the manifold but fsdo ive heard from 7 to 20 on that setting will that cause my gun to use alot of air

Are there 2 screws inside the manifold adjustment? I tried adjusting my manifold screw today and I couldnt turn in past flush...so I took the screw out, looked inside, and there was another adjustment screw inside....is that how it is supposed to be? Do I turn that second screw in farther so that my top screw can be turned in?

Any updates on fsdo? My friend keeps his at 20 to make sure he has no drop off... But does it use up more air? I'm not sure where to put my fsdo!

the colder is is and newer the gun/o-rings the higher you"ll want to set it to ensure you wont have any bolt stick....id recommend starting the fsdo at 12ms and raising it until the bolt stick stops...then raise it 2-3 more ms just to be safe.....

during the summer i keep mine at 8ms how-ever during the winter i raise it to 14-16ms, the amount of air lost is minuscule and wont be noticed..better to be be safe than sorry' when the match start's
