I release the trigger and it takes about 1/2 a second for the air to stop. The local dealer who cleaned it says the 'seat' and other parts are worn and is causing the sticking. Does not make sense to me, but nobody seems to have the answer. If you have any ideas, I'm all ears! Thanks, Chris |

Chris, I don't know how handy you are with taking it apart, but if you're going to trash it you've got nothing to lose. I don't have one, so I can't give you any advice. Anyway, Coast Airbrush would sell you all the parts in the trigger assembly for $36, including the trigger. I can't imagine they would all be bad. Coast really knows Iwatas, and if you e-mailed or called them they might be able to help. I don't mean to try to talk you out of a new airbrush. Heck, get one anyway. It doesn't hurt to have a backup. Don
