After replacing the new valve with a Murray's oversized stainless one as Clandestine suggested it ran great. Then we ran into other problems. Rounds stopped going off and when inspected had not been touched by the firing pin. We took it apart and found that the firing pin had somehow been forced too far out the back of the bolt and although we were able to get it back in I am pretty sure it is now bent. Platekiller will post a pick of it coming out the back of the bolt later.
The second problem is with the trigger group. The hammer is in the cocked position and will not release. I was thinking that maybe when the firing pin got forced back to far it in turn forced the hammer back to far and bent something but I don't know. We pulled the trigger group and I can see nothing visually wrong with it. I 'll have to take a closer look at it and maybe strip it down.
Any ideas on what could have caused the firing pin to do that and what might be wrong with the trigger group?
