try twisting the valve head back n forth.. my K24 gate was seized up, and i freed it by just twisting it back and forth for a while..

mine didnt even turn that far.. it turned a few degrees.. just enough to break the shaft loose, then i started spraying lube on it, and working it, then it freed up..
