Have you taken the reg apart and given it a polish? Maybe it's binding and won't adjust.
What about increasing the hammer weight and putting in a stronger hammer spring? Sorry if you've already done all this.

Done all that, thinking it is the AMP regulator, never operated as it should, max power has alway been stuck on 97 turn it up stayes resonable, but after 110 power always diminishes no matter how much hammer adjustment. Might have to gret a hume air plemum/ regulator replacement.

So it seems that something in the hammer has changed.
1. It has lost some of it's original power. (Hammer power) 2. is not hitting consistantly When you took the hammer assembly out was there any damage or deforming of the power wheel bearing surface, spring our guides? Make sure there are no small bits of metal causing hang ups. Could the guy you lent it to of opened it up to try and fix it and lost something like hammer weight? Check the barrel hasn't moved forward and that the O rings are still in place.

Power adjuster looks fine, checked all other things, put back together, moved pellet probe forwards slightly. Power back at full on 7 after tuning, but somewhat eratic incroments in speed dialing back, what was 2 power 760fps is now is 3 or slightly more.

Yes, could be worth taking the power adjuster off to make sure it hasn't been damaged, also check there isn't any debris in around the hammer spring area.

I seem to recall that if the power adjuster is turned when the gun is cocked (a no-no) the hammer spring tension steps can be damaged. Perhaps worth taking a look? I assume the speed going backwards when you increase the pressure is the start of valve lock. Maybe there's been a change in valve return spring tension, another option to check.

Noticed my fx has dropped in power, all settings fps down 50 to 80 fps. Don't loose air, and shot constistancy is good, getting plenty of shots so thought I had it well tuned. Have retuned it & can't seem to get it back to where it was. Reg normally on just under 100 if I increase it power, the speed goes backwards, always has. Any ideas as to why?
