I found,maybe,when I rotated the valve to be pointing in the right direction during the intial install the seal to the can may have been compromised.

The valve rattles freely.No spring and looks much like an old school PVC valve on the inside.That combined with the slight vacum leak may amplify the noise?

The problem is when the valve is oriented in the direction it needs to go,it doesn't sit down flush to the top of the can.A few threads are showing.
Yep, same with mine. I used a small amount of teflon tape so I know it's sealed good but it didn't make any difference!
