Sticking Honeywell 3-port valve

Thanks roger196. but whole valve (motor and body replaced each time. System is clean and contains good inhibitor. A sharp tap on valve body quickly releases valve but frequency of sticking increases until it is every time the valve opens. This has happened over the life history of at least 4 valves....

Sticking Honeywell 3-port Valve

My motorised valve keeps sticking in the open position.My cental heating system (Y-type) then needs a new valve every 1-2 years. I have only used a Honeywell 4073 each time it has been replaced. Is there a problem with this valve? Any ideas as to what is causing the problem?
