Bostitch N16 Framing Nailer?
I have an old Bostitch N16 Framing nailer that is leaking air from the exhaust as soon as the air is hooked to the gun. does anyone know of a video that would show how to rebuild this gun.
Thanks

i have the same gun which i have abused for 8 years and dropped in the lake countless times (we build docks and polebarns) and have always been able to resurrect it with lots of air tool cleaner and then lots of fresh oil and dry-cycling - also, if the hammer is partially through a stroke, shove it back all the way up into the gun
try these links, no videos but several exploded diagrams:

You need to go to home-depot or Lowe's for this info. the nails have a degree angle on them and if it is not right they will not work. And some are held together with paper and some with plastic.
