I'm using a soda stream co2 adapter and have had no problems since setting up 4 months ago, this week a problem has started the needle valve does not adjust the flow / bps rate no matter how much you open the valve the rate remains around 1bps and i normally run 3/4bps.
anyone have clue when this has happened? or how to fix the problem?

thanks
Mark
 
Through an atomiser? Pores get clogged. Pressure prevents additional gas. Remove the atomiser to check, try a fresh one or clean yours with H2o2. HTH
 
A little more info is required?

Are you using a solenoid valve?

The reason I ask this is because sometimes the valve stem sticks!

When you close the needle valve does the flow stop?

This will prove if the valve stem is closing, moving.

What are the pressures shown on the two gauges?

Have you run out of gas!
