Please be gentle, this is my first Angel and I'm sorta uncertian on what to do with it since its my new baby. Anyhoo, I just got a Speed after a forced year ferlow from paintball. I've got 2 volumizers on it (not that either of them really matter) and a Thor reg on the drop since I also shoot two other guns that require higher imput pressures. So I mildly oild it up, gased it up, turn it on, adjust some hose fittings & reg settings and it shot great for about 2 1/2 cases at a weekend practice. Velocity was a little erratic at first but started to even out towards Sunday night (common with some Angels). Here's the problem. I take it out for a game tonight, gas it up and its leaking down the barrel. Besides that, you could tell from the sound of a few shots that it was firing waaaaaaaaay hot (prolly somewhere around 400). Imput pressure was a consistant 500 from the Thor and was working flawlessly (I checked). I didn't check the breech to see if I could get it open because I wanted to take the air off as quickly as I could. Being such a new gun, I have no idea what could be wrong with it since it was fine a few days ago. Maybe a few adjustments I need to make. Any suggestions? Thanks! -Dr. Shock
