: hey everyone, : just got my first marker..(custom 98). messed with it a bit on xmas day, worked great. yesterday i went to use it again, and the tank is leaking all over.. the only thing i can imagine it being is the tank o-ring, but it doesnt look messed up to me.. although im not sure what I should be looking for.. any help is greatly appreciated. : p.s. i was trying out a remote line i just picked up, and the tank leaks in both the remote and directly on the gun.. so i guess its definately the tank.. Very possibly the tank o-ring. You probably cut it when you removed your tank from the gun. If you unscrew it too fast, the pressure will push the o-ring into the threads and cut it. To prevent this, point it in a safe direction and fire the gun without paint while unscrewing the tank. To fix, pick up a couple of extra o-rings and replace it. Tom
