[cool][#0000ff]There are several kinds of valves that rely on pressure to keep the valves closed. Most of them have the potential for being "sticky" when now...or old.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]It may be a simple matter of working the mechanism a few times, to loosen up a bad factory fit. Try dribbling a little water in there. Water will not hurt it and might be just enough lubricant to get it working. If that doesn't work, then a silicone based lubricant...like some reel lubes...is the next step.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]It it just won't work, that is what warranties are for. Bummer to have to wait for a replacement, but sometimes the only option.[/#0000ff]
