Is there anyway to repair a damaged solenoid ? When I air the SLG 08 it just vents air ? Changed all the o rings on the bolt but still no joy so I'm guessing it
Must be the solenoid ? If I have to buy a new solenoid what's the average price I'd have to pay?
Thanks guys

I'm pretty certain that the noid in the SLG isn't a pneumatic one. It's purely electrical. Therefore it can't leak!!!

Have you aired up the marker with the grip frame removed to see if you can work out where the leak is coming from?

as above the slg uses a seer tripping solenoid so it will not leak, as long as you can hear it click when you pull te trigger and see it move when you have the grips off then it is fine

you do still need to find out where the leak is coming from though however i don't think you can air up the slg without the frame as it uses a seer to release the bolt

if it is leaking down the breack then it is most likely the o ring on the front of the bolt guide that goes inside the bolt when the gun is together

hope this helps
