Senco Accuset. It stopped driving pins.   Disassembled front, cleared out any dead pins. Disassembled piston, clean -- nothing in there.  It sure *sounds* like the piston is driving down. It sounds as loud as before.  Just no pins come out anymore.
Sad

Bought it used here, worked great for 10 years.
I'd like to see if I can resurrect it, if possible.

Suggestions?
Thank you!

Is the driver retracting back into the head, or just hanging out?
Oil the driver shaft up, may be dry, or broken.

Ereplacement may have o-ring kits yet if needed.

Thanks Steve. I futzed with it for an hour - and then went to Harbor Fright and got their 23g pin nailer for $25... Oh well.

Harbor Freight's small pneumatic fastener guns don't seem to be bad at all. I don't have their 23 ga. gun but I do have their T50 stapler and it'll sink 9/16" staples into red oak all day long. I don't know about their framing guns but if I needed an 18,16 or 15 ga. gun I'd have no reservations about HF. I also have their wood flooring nailer and it did exactly what I expected it to do.
