Default Is my tial busted

when you take the spring out can you move the valve up and down easily? Mine takes alot of force to move.

I was in a accidnt and it broke off the manifold and was laying in the street.


I think theres somthing wrong with one of these two parts. They both look perfectly straight though.



Now when it gets to here it gets really hard to move, like tap it with a hammer to get it in/out.

Or roll it accross a flat surface, the more it's bent the less it woll roll smoothly.

my valve moves completely freely with the spring out. i good test would be to put it together and use a regulated air source to give the valve similar pressures to what you will be running and see if it opens and closes freely.

That valve is supposed to move freely. The only tension it should havei s from the spring. It's probably no good.
