I have Paslode IM 250 A nail gun, the battery is fully charged and a half used gas cartridge but I can not get it to fire.

Paslode im350Reliable, high-performance gas framing nail gun with low weight and excellent balance, enabling extended work periods with lower fatigue. Multi-angled teeth nose probe provides an additional bite to prevent tool sliding and ensure positive placement in timbers. The sequential trigger for safety. The lock-out function engages when only 3 nails remain.

Sounds like either the battery is bad, or since one is new its possible the contacts in the gun are not making proper contact. Are you sure your charger is working as well ? If you have a volt meter check that the battery does have a charge on it.

Have all the nails been cleared out of the tool where they were jammed? If not take the fuel cell out of the tool, and remove the battery before working on it. If still persists come back to this website for further help.

Try a different gas cartridge and make sure the top of the cartridge is snapped tightly onto the cartridge body.

Give it a thorough cleaning.. if it still does not fire you might have to replace the spark plug.

Any time these guns become intermittent or stop firing but the fan still runs, the first the to check is the expiration date on the gas cartridges. The do expire and this will make the gun work inconsistently or not at all.

Hi,
Probably needs cleaning. You`ll need two new o`rings.

have you activated the fuel cell by pressing the black nozzle down onto the cylinder?

Yes,this is a common "mis fire" by Pasilode. I own the 16p Framer and the Angle nailer and I never get it from the Framer but I do get it seldom from Trim Gun,nothing you can do ,its just a misfire.
