Cheap shortcut.  Yes.  the boiler was an even more cheaply
made item.  Whoever left water in it was lazy or stupid, so
that makes two idiots.  It was a holed and getting worse so
I took a shot.  Also, MAJOR desoldering/soldering is not my
talent.  Reminds me of working in major computer code that
others had turned into a rats nest in places.

Thanks for the encouragement,
