Hi Folks

Looking for some help with the above. Boiler not firing today with plenty of in tank. Oil getting so far but it doesnt seem to get passed the fire valve. From what i can see the valve has closed. When i pull up on the knob it just goes straight back down and shuts off again. Ive taken apart amd removed it. The knob still wont stay up. Just snaps straight back down. So obviously fuel cant get to the burner. My guess is its bunched but before I buy a new one just checking if anyone knows if im missing something when it comes to resetting it.

Link to type of valve. Red knob is what im trying to put in the up position.
