Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the reply. Unless I completely misunderstood Bill, I think he was suggesting pulling the valve in situ rather than removing the entire assembly but trying to work from the avionics access plate downwards doesn't seem feasible and won't allow for portable power to be connected. I have a power cart, in fact posted a picture awhile back in a different thread topic, it just seemed like using it was like using a chainsaw when a scalpel was the right tool, no finesse in measuring the pop-off pressure. The service center rebuild would be convenient but I'm usually disappointed every time I try just throwing money at a problem and 25 c-notes for some o-rings just seems excessive. When I suggested same I just got the usual blather about "well, you know, liability and all". The only reason I'm considering it is I don't much want to revisit this project site next year when the other shoe falls and I end up wishing all the seals had been replaced while it was out and open.
