Those symptoms mean something is preventing the poppet from sealing. A bit of debris is a potential culprit, CO2 being an open system, so the valve might just need to be opened and inspected and cleaned. Or the poppet head may have failed (cracked / crumbled). Much further down the list is something is causing the stem from moving freely and the valve couldn't return closed.Whatever it is, step 1 is remove the valve and inspect it.
New poppet and valve oring. Might be just some crud in the old one
.Im thinking maybe since I got to go in anyway is baker boss valve….been wanting to try one out…lol

Might make it sound more powerful by belching more CO2 but it really needs to be married to a longer barrel to show a benefit.
New OEM valve in my lego 2240 ….good as new….havent taken old valve apart but no apparent damage….I did not know the valve has minimal movement when bolted down….now I know what magnum airs bigger screws were referring to..lol

Makes for a very solid set-up.The breech covers it, so it’s not unsightly.
