Just received water gun as a gift. Is it supposed to have a pinhole in the cap?? (water runs out!)

Yes, mine has a pin hole in the cap and mine does not leak. Maybe yours is faulty

Yes, There is a hole in my sons cap as well, He hasn't had a problem with water coming out the back.

Look at the bottom of the black cap that uses two air lines. The fluid is suppose to enter the container where there is sort of an exit pointing downwards which redirects the fluid to the small container. Make sure you use the short hose supplied so it wont splash while in vacuum. Make sure the container is standing upright and not at an angle. Otherwise you will suck up fluid and damage the gun.

You take the water tank off and flip it upside down to fill it and replace the cap. I would consider it bottom fill.

I do not have that in mine! It could be defective,but if it holds water and there is no leak,and the place is not thin then I would not worry about it.IT hope this helps!!

The hole is sealed.if the want it open you need to knock it out. No cap is necessary.

Hmmm. It should just close when you do that. Try taking the top off and messing with it to see if it closes that way. If that doesn't work, you might have gotten a defective cap.

No that is not normal, nor does it mean it defective though. You may have a piece of sand/dirt preventing the seal on the pin to close fully.

It sounds to me like the capsule is not being punctured. If this is happening the water will start to flow but is being stopped, thus the bump. I have never done this but try doing it without a capsule but be ready and have your finger on the off switch. Are you pressing the lever down until it touches the top of the machine? Also, if it is a used machine, check the manual, it just may need to be cleaned where the water goes through the capsule. If this does not help, let me know I will try to help. Bandit7342@aol.com

The one I ordered (I think it is the one you ask about) has the pipe thread on the inside of the water inlet (top hole). Wrap your threaded pipe with teflon tape, then screw it in tight. Mine worked perfectly!

Time for a new iron. The main water container has a pinhole size hole in it. Sometime the water contaminates cause this. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Finkcreek

No. That is not normal. Mine shoots a steady stream of water 20 to 25 feet for about 12 or 13 shots.

The red cap stays on, and water does not leak from there, but the white cap on the very top did not stay closed for me, so water leaked everywhere. I Hope this helps.

I can't be of much help...my daughter said that she just took the cap off with no problem and used it. She has since lost the marker, so I can't check it out for you. Maybe you got a bum marker? Sorry!

So far, this is the only flaw I've found. The threads on the cap are too flexible and if you over-tighten (like I did) the cap get's stuck or stops threading. So far, I haven't found a good replacement. I'm looking around for a plug instead of a cap, but the opening is a bit odd shaped. I'll let you know if I find an easy solution, but for now I just have a small rag rolled up and jammed in the hole. It's not a solution, but I had work to do. lol

I have never had that problem. The unit is like an inner tube to a tire, but there is no place with a cap to remove and pump in air. I would say it had sprung a leak and needs to be pumped with air and patched at the site of the leak. I would contact the seller.

There was a insert that came with part that fits inside. You take a ratchet with extension on it and turn clockwise, this is after you've put the past in the hole. As you turn the insert it tightens up on the tank, Keep turning until tight, turn on water and make sure it doesn't leak past if it does tighten some more, remove insert and store somewhere where thou can find it again. It's really quite simple just takes some time tightening it up.

There is a small twist cap on the bottom of the water container. I didn't figure it out at first either... If you miss the opening you may get some water in the decorative case but just turn it over, over the base and the small amount of water will go in there. This one is by far may favorite so far, I have bought 5 of them, two of which I had to send back.
