are you sure you are actually contacting the diaphragm?
it its pretty high up inside the housing
I usually use a highlighter or pen, to push the diaphragm up
and look into the side port to see hoow far it moves
it's just not possible for that light-weight thing not to move

Both my failed stock valves and the replacement Bailey valves...
could be moved with my finger, but they were both very stiff/difficult to move. Push hard and it should move.

If I look in it from the larger opening the diaphragm looks to be pushed up already. I will try to
push down to see if their is free movement. I wanted to keep the BPV stock to avoid warranty pblms, but if these don't work I may go with aftermarket.
