Push the valve up with a pen, hold it, put your finger over the top of the diverter valve, pull the pen out and then the valve should stay held in without the pen until you release your finger from the top of the DV.
why the pen test, can you not use your finger or is the hole to tiny only a pen will fit in.  :nerd:

Depends if you have fat fingers or not, lol
Its quite tough pushing it with your finger, Much better with a pen or other instrument that wont scratch the piston.

They do sell the new style ones on Ebay but................


if you either email or call Forge explaining that the valve leaks boost they will send you the revised piston kit for free.
