Very unklikely to be the blow-off valve in the pump head. 90% likely that it will be a dodgy exhaust valve assembly.

Hi All.
My .22 Innova is on the blink. When I pump the gun it hisses at the end part of each stroke. I'm presuming that's the blow-off thingie.
You can get full power if you pump it quickly and give it ten pumps. (and I do mean quickly). Pump it slowly and it will let the air out. However, when it is fully pumped it will hold air.
I can't find a gunsmith round here who will touch it. Aaron Wheeler of Brighouse has looked at it twice and can't seem to work out the problem. He seems to think it may be a tired blow off valve spring (?). When he stripped it he showed me some kind of pin that was sticking or something. However, he's always busy these days and never has time to do a thorough job.
I know Innovas are supposed to be easy to work on but I'm reluctant to strip it as I'm utterly shite with guns. Does anyone have a clue what's going on here or if it's even fixable?
Thanks.
Likes a bit of Pumping

Opportunity is missed by most people, because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

There are a few guys on here that can fix Sharp rifles, Matty has been good enough to offer a repair so problem solved.

Update:
Innova sorted by MattyBoy. It now shoots like it just rolled out of the factory in Tokyo - or wherever it is they made them
First shot in anger = one instantly dead feral.
Nice one, Matty. Many thanks
