Default Paslode Impulse Problems

I just bought a usedPaslodeImpulse framing nailer. It did work when
I received it last week. But, now when I try to use it does not
fire. The fuel cell cycles, the fan runs when I squeeze the trigger
but the nail's don't fire and I hear no pop.

The battery is fully charged, brand new fuel cell. I had just
replaced the spark plug, completely clean everything inside and it's
still not popping.

Any ideas as to what could be the problem is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Alright, Thank you all for your suggestions. I have narrowed down to
the root cause of the problem. When I cleaned the piston chamber, I
used carburetor cleaner solution which may have caused the O-Ring
Sleeve to expand. As the result, the combustion chamber did not
retract all the way, preventing the combustion chamber ring from
touching the roller assembly. This is the root cause of why the spark
plug did not ignite.

My follow up question is has anyone had the experience of changing the
O-Ring Sleeve? Do you have to separate the Combustion Chamber and the
Sleeve Assembly to replace the O-Ring Sleeve?

For a reference to the part names, please refer to this schematic:
