G3 Mechbox Cycle issue

[HKGhost]

I'm not talking about the AOE. This is the mod http://media.photobucket.com/image/p...th_removed.jpg. Just do a better job than this person.

I knew what you meant, but when I cycle it without spring, the sector gear is catching on the correct tooth and matches up correctly.

Again, the problem is that the sector gear is progressing too far past the point where it is supposed to stop in semi, even though the disconnect lever is working properly : /

[HKGhost]

Try a 8.4v. Other than that, I can't think of anything else. Is it possible for you to take a pic of the gearbox?

[Cobrajr122]

I Can, are there any specific spots/level of assembly?

I wont be able to do this until late tomorrow since I'm getting to bed now and have a long day planned tomorrow.

Thanks fro the help.

Try the piston mod.

YouTube - Amos Airsoft how to: AOE and the ARS MASK kit!

We've got the exact same compression set-ups in our G3 and I needed to remove the last tooth and 1/3 of the 2nd last one.

Other than that, when I get a chance I'll talk to you on MSN, I didn't really have time to read what you were writing before.

Could it be due to the trigger contact's spring not pulling it back soon enough?

[Cobrajr122]

Some pics.

Shot it a few times in semi.

Position of the cut off leaver before opening.



As you can see, the nozzle/tappet plate are being held back. I cannot push it in or pull it out any more.



Immediately after opening.
The tappet plate was still being pulled back by the sector gear put i pulled it off the post to remove pressure.
You can also see that AOE is good. Gears are meshing properly.



Parts removed so you can see the position of the gears.

so this happens even when the mechbox is out of the gun correct? how good a shape are the piston head and washer in?

[Cobrajr122]

This happens when the mechbox is both in and out of the rifles body.

The piston/piston head have not even seen 1000 rounds yet, exelent condition.

[Cobrajr122]

Nobody?

Basically you have an over spin problem. Your setup is much stronger than the spring so, either use a weaker battery, weaker motor or stronger spring. If you don't want to change any of those things, get an ASCU.

Cobra, all those pics look normal to me. Nozzles normally are solid in place after firing at least once when you put the mechbox back together.

If this was the case, replacing the old spring would have fixed it. Moving up to a more powerful spring did not fix it either.

I would have ordered an ASCU last week if I could find any in stock in Canada >_<

None of my other AEGs preform this way though.

The way it is preforming currently is causing massive air seal and feed issues.

No, the nozzle should be able to push inwards when the piston and gears are at "Battery Position".

Nothing should EVER prevent the nozzle and tappet plate from moving back. (With exception of the nozzle and tappet plate being already pushed as far as it can go)

[Styrak]

After single shots on any mechbox I've seen or worked on, the nozzle is rearward a bit and almost immmovable. Maybe it can spring back a few mm but that's it.
