Re: IML: Strange Beast Sighted Prowling North Portland

[Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx>]

My solution was to ship to Karp's in San Jose and have
it rebuilt.

They seem to have a stranglehold on the rebuild
components, and will not sell parts seperate for
"liability reasons", but stand ready to do a complete
redo for you.

There is a diaphram in there that us usually torn.

I've just swallowed hard and bought rebuilds on the 4
that I've faced.  $250 or so.
