Paslode F350 Major Air Leak

When I attach the air hose from compressor to the Paslode f350 the air comes directly out the air deflector port. Any thoughts about what may cause this?

Thanks

Yes, pretty common failure for any air nailer. Nothing the seal kit won't fix up.

Thanks for the advice, tried to pull the back housing off, any experience with that. I don't want to pry too hard on the cast aluminum.

Just order the kit. It's like 20 bucks, and comes with a comic book that shows you how to do it. You're gonna fool around and F up a good nailer.

The kit is on the way. I got the back off, found a dried up, brittle plastic seal on the end of the cylinder. Your right, I don't want to it up.
Thanks for the time!
