The "ding" is most likely the cause. There should be some scuffing on the
inside where the ding is. You can probably carefully sand it down. The dome
and pistons should be handled very carefully. The slightest damage can cause
problems. I've tested dome and piston pairs for the same drop rate by covering
the air passages and turning them upside down on the bench, to compare their
fall.
