You didn't over stretch it did you? that o-ring is a very tight fit. Did you use white grease on it for lubrication.

it helps the piston move freely. You might try it and see if it helps. I have a diagram on my work PC . I can upload it tomorrow if you would like to see it. Is that split teflon ring on the piston?
Is it this valve?
Slide the o-ring onto the plunger, lube the plunger and the outside edge of the o-ring and screw it back in..

I think I saw every valve last winter when working for my disty.. Always tried to see how fast I could fix them (not one came back).. I like any valve that can get fix without removing it from the wand. "Feather touch" are my favorite.

All my (early model) Stainless valves cracked down the body.
The brass model is just too cheap.

How long would a cold water truckmount last?
How many cleaners are out there making people happy with their luke warm 150 pis Ninjas?
I bet with an RE and a bit more juice, most carpet would look just fine with cold water...

Well, I'm thinking like 190 to 210 you might not have the problems these guys running 250 is a waste to me.
Guys with 150psi portables usually have to advertise more for my taste.. I wouldn't do that to my customers, or myself..
Heat has it's place and I like it! I personally will NEVER run a portable in my life EVER again!

The problem is the second flat rubber washer that goes in first....
OK its 4:45 AM and I am up trying to figure this stupid valve out...I am going to admit....I GOOFED....finally realized there's only 1rubber washer..I had 2 in there...Boy do I feel silly...although I've never even opened one of these valves...Thank you all for the help...I believe it fits just fine now
If it doesn't work call me 734 771-2312. I have PMF and Westpak valves with spacers. Drive down I'll hook you up.
