Need some help. I picked up a Tipx with a leak and need some help fixing it. When you put the twelve gram in and pull the trigger the CO2 vents out when you let the trigger off. Any idea how I can fix this???

It could be many seals, but I'd wager the 12g face seal takes the brunt of the action in all 12gram applications.
The only way to find out is open up them clamshells.

Is the screw in the CO2 cap adjusted properly for the length of your 12 grams? I always adjusted it so the trigger pull would puncture in the first 1/8 to 1/4 of the trigger pull. This ensured good puncture but also that the cartridge was firmly held
against the seal. One screw is for adjusting. The other just locks the first in place.
If that doesn’t work, get a seal kit from tippmannparts.com and provide any additional info you can as to the location and severity of the leak. Video always helps.Comment

If it helps I can do a teardown thread on a TIPX
and show all the bits and pieces. I’m fairly certain I have not done one even though I own several TIPXs.Comment

Theeightiesman. I’m a bit old school and use photos. But easy enough to do.
