I have a Bostitich brad nailer model BT200 it's 7 years old
I have a Bostitich brad nailer model BT200 it's 7 yrs old but has very few hours on it.I hardly ever use it. Some times theres no discharge when I pull the triger, The triger feels very sloppy like there's no spring pressure on it.If I disconnect the air hose, and re connect.it will work a few times before it fails again.what can I try to do to fix it. thanks

The nailer needs some lubrication. The rubber gaskets are not riding in the shafts correctly. I would have this rebuilt and lubricated. It should be used one every few months to spread the oil around and keep the rubber parts oiled. Check with your local lumber yard. If they deal with Bostitch, you may be able to get a "rebuild" for the purchase of a box of nails. I was able to get a couple of guns overhauled this way during the local "Bostitch days".
