Hank,

I mention the BTV 'cuz you can't make it go unless it'll stop. Well, you can, but...

I've heard that the rebuild kits are pretty reasonable, but also was warned that they're not very complete. It might be a good idea to be on the lookout on e-bay to see if something NOS comes up. Meanwhile, it'd be pretty simple to tear it down and see if it needs any of the scarce parts (little bitty valves and "blobs" of rubber that seem to be essential).

Just wanted you to be ready when that 100 years rolls around!
