I also just bought a TVA-6 replacement valve for an N60FN nailer, and am having exactly the same issue. The replacement valve stem is different than the original, which has an indented spring and a metal cap that presses against the trigger. If I replace the spring and cap, there is no room for the trigger to move, and if I omit the spring and cap, the valve stem goes thru the opening in the trigger and has no point of contact. Either this valve is not the correct one for a N60FN, or there is another piece that is missing.
Attached is a picture of the trigger and original METAL valve.
Please advise if I need to return this valve kit.
Thanks!!

Thanks for the post Carlo,
It looks like you'll need to return this Valve, as you need a different kit for your older N60FN nailer, and the kit is unfortunately obsolete.
Per the manufacturer rep:
"It is correct that it would require a conversion kit for the TVA6 to work, and unfortunately the kit and most of the bulk parts are gone.
The parts needed are:
SEQ6 – available
TVA6 Kit -available
N60091A – Upper Trip (The key upgrade component, different length and configuration than the original)
N60012 – Trip Guide (original would not let the new trigger drop far enough on some tools, sometimes the old ones work)
On our website it does state that a different kit is necessary for the nailers with the older metal trigger valves (reference# 108 on the parts list):
www.mastertoolrepair.com/pneumatic-finis...ts-n60fn-p-4155.html
If you want, you can try finding the Bostitch part# "PK1" online, possibly eBay; this is the original OEM part# fore the metal-style trigger valve kit.
I'm sorry I can't be of much help on this, the manufacturer has simply made the parts obsolete. I appreciate you contacting us and giving us a shot.
Cheers,
