Celticranger Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 When I fill my air bottle and attach to my Logun, within 3-4 days all the air has leaked, even though it was left uncocked. Anyone know which seal needs to be replaced, how to replace, and where to buy the seals. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxop666 Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 it sounds silly but i got my new seals from b + q plumbing dept at a fraction of the price and it did the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 (edited) Which Logun is it?+Fill the bottle (i,m guessing its the S16?)and wait a couple of days before reconnecting the bottle to your air source-has it lost its pressure?-If not then you know its the gun side that needs fixing-if it has then its the bottle.If you look up Chambers gun spares on tinternet you will most likely find a parts diagram-the seal responsible should be easy to spot.Prise the old one out and then you can either pay a gun dealer a kings ransom for one or measure the seal and buy a handfull for peanuts from an engineering merchant or even a local garage/DIY sore.

bruno22rf Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Had a look on Chambers and no joy-what model is it because if its the S-16 then just putting "changing the seals on a Logun S-16" into Google brings up a load of info.

old rooster Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Had the same problem with my Webley Axsor recently and traced it to the "O" ring in the fill valve. It is a small ring but has to take a fair bit of heat as the air fills the reservoir so can harden with age. The valve itself holds the seal off from taking full compression but they do take a set over time. I'd have a sporting bet with you that this is the one which has failed You can check it by seeing if the fill point is leaking air, get a bit of spit on your finger, wipe it over the inlet and see if a bubble forms, bit like checking a bicycle inner tube for punctures. If you are struggling to sort it get hold of the seal and bring the gun over so we can put it right. It does mean that you have to let all the air out and start pumping back up from empty when the gun is re-assembled. http://www.gunspares.co.uk/shopdisplayproducts.asp?page=2&id=24049# If you look at this page it is part No. ORO68, worth getting a couple of spare ORO49's while you are at it, they don't cost much and might as well fit a new one while the fill plug is out.
