  The cylinder was off the valve block.  I sent both to
Andy and he cleaned the cylinder and the valve-block
(loaded with glue of some sort).  Then soldered together
the block and cylinder, tested the fix, and declared it
good to go. 

  I think the price was $55.  I don't recall if that
included shipping.

  I considered the work he did 'a blessing'.  Soldering
those pieces together is beyond my abilities.

  Give Andy a call.
