    Empire Mini GS - Persistent Air Leak - $90

    SOLD

    Beautiful empire mini GS for only $90 shipped. The caveat is that it's got a major air leak in the body/frame/bolt somewhere.

    I purchased this used with a bad solenoid I replaced the noid and checked/greases o-rings and it then ran perfectly fine for a full 6 hour day at the field. The next time it was at the field it developed a bad air leak.

    I have since replaced 'most' of the o-rings. I've done a full disassembly and reassembly. I've replaced the cup valve seal in the bolt. But it's still leaking. So I'm selling at a loss and maybe someone smarter than me can figure out the leak and get this baby ripping again.

    $90 shipped. Only rule is you gotta be a better mini gs tech than I am! 😅

    SOLD

    I know it's too late. But after a noid rebuild you need to air these up, and fire the solenoid as it leaks. Its honestly probably all it needed.

      I did the noid reset and had it working. It ran for 6ish hours of field play after that before developing the leak. It's a really bad leak too, as if the full volume of air is being dumped through the marker. I was kinda thinking a regulator seal blew 🤷‍♂️
