I have a Fleck 9000 valve where the upper drive gear broke the bushing in the control panel. I was able to repair the drive assembly but I suspect the reason it broke is that the valve actuation is too stiff.
I removed both the upper and lower pistons and the front side seals, the only thing I noticed was that the coating on the piston and piston rods were worn off in spots and flaking off in others. Is this enough to cause the stiff actuation? Would I be okay with just replacing the pistons and seals?
