Hi

I used my Jetboil on a very cold day on Pen-y-fan when the gas valve suddenly refused to turn off. I assumed that it was just frozen so let the gas bun out and packed away. it still refuses to turn.
Has anyone else had this issue and can it be rectified?

Thanks

Cross threaded?

Maybe you opened it all the way while it was still cold, then the heat made the metal expand and lock up. Maybe a couple of hours in the fridge might enable it to move?

Tried WD40 on the valve? (Sparingly)
