To much hop up

Mr X15

Hi everybody, I installed a prometheus 469mm 6.03mm barrel and a gaurder silicone hop up bucking into my d boys spr. Even with the hop up turned off there is still to much and the bb's are rising to much, im using .25g excel bb's can some one please tell me what i might be doing wrong, Thanks Mr X15

It could be that you caught the nub on the way in and its not in its right location, hence being stuck on. try taking out the arm that presses the hopup and installing the nub that way. it should sit in a lot more easily.

Some new hops add spin anyway, madbull blues have too much hop for .2's when first installed, but .25's are grand.

It could be as richie says you've installed it wrong first time, try again and if its still too much, you'd just have to break it in a bit.

I installed a guarder silicone hop up only 2 days ago and even with the hop up fully off it still rises just a tiny bit but not much.

I installed it correctly as i checked it 2 times to be sure.

I think they just need a bit of time to bed in properly.

Hi, as the lads have already suggested Kevin .......good chance the hop up sleeve wasn't installed correctly. Did you break down the hop up chamber to instal the sleeve or simply take off the C clip and remove the barrell then pop the new sleeve on the barrell and pop it back into the hop up unit?

If you're Southside and near Liffey Valley'ish and want to have the Hop Up checked give me a pm and i'll see what the prob is!

Mr X15

Thanks for the replies everybody ... yeah I completely disassembled the hop unit and put it back together i'm fairly sure i installed it correctly as well

The little tiny piece that goes under the hop up arm installed properly?

Mr X15

yeah fairly sure that is in the correct place.
