I can not depress it all the way, of course, but I can lift it off the seat by pushing down on the rocker arm. I can lift all of them off the seat a tad, but #5 seems to be easier and I can push it down farther (I'm only talking 1mm or two). They are not floppy and they do require some force to lift them, but not excessive force. I don't think I have bionic fingers. Is it possible that all my springs are weak?

Thanks.
