Im after some advice on behalf of a friend please. Due to family circumstances he is very financially constrained at the moment so the usual advice of 'send it to a gunsmith ' can't apply in this case unfortunately.
He has a Falcon Praire Lighthunter with a slow overnight air leak. It appeared to be coming from around the front end of the cylinder (charging port, pressure gauge) area, and he has renewed the gauge. No joy.
My question really is (I know nothing about PCP's) how do people go about diagnosing these leaks? Water bath? I've heard of balloons taped over muzzles and cylinders which he has done, but it's a slow leak and would that just indicate a leak somewhere inside which happens to be exiting at the muzzle/cylinder?
Are these things very complex or dangerous to work on? Aside from the pressure, could a chap with a decent tool set and time on his hands strip one down and have a poke around, or will it be full of highly sensitive valves and widgets which implode when touched by a human?
All advice gratefully received, as I have none to give him...
many thanks
