Getting back into the sport after a 6 year absence! But I have an issue with one of my markers. I currently have an '04 E-bladed pro stock that has dry rotted solenoid hoses. Are the solenoids available to buy separately? Would finding one used be better or will I be stuck buying the whole thing electronics and all? I just really want to play with it again, it ran so smooth and its killing me inside!

I guess it just sat too long and something crept in.

Any help with the subject, or a push in the right direction would be awesome

they noid is easy and cheap to find

Ninja edit. Found the hoses.

I guess a better question would be, are there other problems i should be anticipating from the dry rotted hoses?

[Drix]

I'd anticipate having to do a complete teardown and replace all the o-rings and chalk up a re-lube on the gun stem to stern. I saw someplace on ebay last night someone selling noids for like $10 a piece which seemed like a great deal and you can get o-ring kits from o-ring monkey.

Thanks or the info! I did plan on replacing all of the o rings. Whats the hot lube these days? I was using Goop for a while and it was great.

Cockers use oil, not lube. A few drops of gold cup in the ASA and 15-20 shots without the barrel on and you should be all lubed up.

You can use a really thin coat of grease on the reg orings, but even that is overkill to some people.

i always use grease on my hpr and lpr, but like the rest said, put a few drops of oil and dry fire it a few times

[blame it on god]

Dow 33 on the cocking noid, And oil on everything else.

[hmcl281]

i mix dow 33 and oil then put it in the asa

[theassassassin]

Thanks for all the info! The cocker was bought a very long time ago and I neverl used it. The proto I used, among ALL of my other PB equioment, got stolen and sold by one of my really good friends ( apparently becoming a born again Christian makes you sell stuff that isn't yours, anyway). I've never been able to shoot an ebladed cocker and I really just wanna get out there and play again, so this seems like a good opportunity!

if you need a new gasket for the noid paintballgateway.com has them. they have the noids too.

[R-M-I]

I've seen HEAPS of the cocker-noids on ebay a while back...

I had 250 of them myself..but have "only" 6 left now. Don't you have some aswell HMCL?
