I hope it's only the tubing.

That seems rather odd to me-- a relief valve being perfectly calibrated so that one extra pump breaks it? Weird...

I doubt anyone would stalk her (especially since there isn't much info to use), but it's better safe than sorry. I really need to start a team... Or have a major water war so I can have a reason to have a team. Unfortunately, the last time I planned one, about three people out of twelve were going ...

Jeez, what are you, a cult leader? :p You thought all this out rather well.

Still, an interesting idea. Pretty cool that your little sister is in "Soaker Preschool."

I'm glad you like your new modded gun. I was glad to be of service.

By the way, the reason it takes a few mist shots to get it working is because there is still air in the tubes, which needs to be flushed out in order to work properly. This is called "priming."

Yeah, I've seen this before. It was nice to post it, though. It'll keep people from asking. Saltpeter can be found in some Pharmacies. be careful when heating the stuff.

It you're gonna do it, it's pretty simple. Just plug the hole like it says here.

It's always nice to get a new member that isn't a n00b. :laugh:

Does that tube leading downwards from the reservoir go out the bottom of the gun? If it does, that's the relief valve.

EDIT: After looking at some of sSoakers pics, I think I can confirm that that is, in fact, the relief valve.

Well, now we have the problem. The O-Ring must have broken off, and is probably sitting one of the tubes. Would someone be willing to open their 1200 and give a measurement of the O-Ring?

Nozzle drilling works good, though. Mine gets like 2.5-3x at almost 40 feet for five seconds. I don't quite remember, it was a while ago. I love it. This was my first nozzle drill (my second was on my Defender), and it's a lot easier than it sounds.

Sorry for reviving a dead post, but it turns out what I was using was 1/2" CPVC. Sorry about that.

Maybe some cars could be weaker than others. Maybe a Civic would have light armor, and a Hummer would have heavy armor.

Shoot. Beat me to it.

As for lube, use silicone lube and/or vasoline.

You would need a way to know if a transport is "destroyed" or not. Perhaps you could tape paper towels to it, if one is obliterated, the transport is destroyed.
