Might be a dumb question... Does anyone know if there is an adjustment to the "sensitivity" of Apeks dump valves?

Reason I ask is I just serviced my dump valve as it was packed with cave paste and now it seems like when I have it wide open it just does not dump as easy as it use to. Works great, no leaks, turns/clicks fine, etc. but it just is not as sensitive/as easy to dump as be for. I have never really noticed this other times I have serviced it until now. My thoughts were maybe depending on how you clock/index the valve when you screw it back together??? Or maybe it is just the fact that I cleaned it out?? Or maybe I am just making it all up in my head... but I swear it was easier to dump be for.
