Hi, any assistance with this would be appreciated.

This started after a mechanic re-sealed the right side valve bank.

Its binding, if the springs are ok sometimes its the way the sections were tightened and torqued sometimes just loosening them and tightening in a more even sequence, you can check this by loosening the bolts with machine off and see if its free.
