: : In my spyder shutter, the bottom line leaks on two ends. On the ends, where the hose meets the part that screws into the regulator or extension chamber, when i screw in the co2, it pushes these things(Sorry, i dont know what to call them or how to descrive them), out, and it leaks air. I bought a new bottom line, but then i tried the same thing and it still leaks. I am cocking my gun, then screwing in the co2. And also my psi is about 750-800.

: Is it steelbraided or Macroline? Are the threads wrapped in teflon tape? Has your tank itself been checked?

Cgances are, it's macro/microline. If it's leaking out of the metal parts, then i would say is to put teflon tape on the threads of the fittings. If it's leaking out of the actual line, then there might be a burr on the end, so try to make it a straight cut. If the eleaks persist, then check the tank. If they still continue, write back and we'll go from there.
