If you have low power and #1 is nailing, the copper seal isn't sealing. I got a $2000 discount on my 300D because someone replaced the 0-rings on the pressure valve holders and didn't get the copper seals right. Easy fix (fortunately -- I'd planned on a head).

The o-rings in the pressure valve holders seal the filling chamber, not the high pressure part.
