Well, I am game for rebuilding it. Brake fluid comes out my switch hole, so
O-rings is a likelihood. Where did you get 'em? Maybe if I have trouble
finding 'em I can purchase some of your surplus. What is EP material? We are
now going into another area no alt-man has gone before.

I have one and may be induced to part with it, however, there is nothing in
there that wears out that can't be replaced. there is just a piston, O
rings, small steel ball and the switch. The O rings die, but can be
replaced as long as you use EP material. Read the information on the VTR
maintenance page about repairing them. I have some of the O rings (more
than I need) and could send you some or I can tell you where I got them.
They are expensive as O rings go, but not much in the grand scheme of
things. Maybe $2 each. You could probably get dozens for that price with
careful shoppping, but I only ordered a few. Sometimes the switch dies, but
that can be replaced. It is expensive, but VB has it and probably TRF and
Rimmer.
