Hello, first time poster here.
I'm having an odd problem with a new regulator. It's an atomic z2, and I can breathe (well, more like draw a tiny amount of air) through my octo when it is not connected to a tank and the dust cap is on. However, I cannot breathe through the atomic second stage at all.
I thought it was a problem with the octo at first, but i removed it from the first stage and covered the end of the hose with my finger and i couldn't draw any air from it. Seems like it should be a problem with my first stage, but then why can't I draw any air at all from my primary (I tried REAL hard too)? I also moved it to some other ports but had the same result. I also tried a different second stage in addition to the octo.
Any ideas as to what the problem could be? Ill probably call up the shop where I purchased it from but i have a feeling they'll say it's nothing to worry about.
Thanks!
