Hi, If anyone can help would be great!  My Dewalt DCN692 (type 2) first fix nailer wont fire when nailing overhead (so when it is upside down).  It works absolutely fine when firing downward or sideways.  When firing overhead it clunks instead of firing so the trigger and actuator all seems to work fine and its trying to fire but just does a clunking sound instead.  If anyone has any advice would be great?  Many thanks!
