least 5 phone calls). I think they are changing owners or something. My needs don't seem to be a big priority. They have always been very helpful in the past. Really miss my CitiCar as it is my main means of transportation. Thanks! Steve Evans Crete, NE ----- Original Message -----

If the cylinders use cups, rather than donut style sealing rubbers, then you
can usually find them at a old style, well-stocked parts store. Hone out the cylinders first, then check the bore with an inside mic. and get the correct size cups for that bore. If the pistons are frozen or corroded into the cylinders, try removing the line flare nuts or bleed screws, and replacing them grease fittings of the same thread size. Thread a heavy duty "c" clamp to retain the pistons (loosely, to give them room to move) and pump away with a grease gun on the fitting. Keep loosening the clamp as the piston(s) emerge, and after you have one of them out, insert an appropriate hardwood dowel drift through the cylinder, and knock the other one out. See if the old rubbers don't have a mfgr. name embossed on them somewhere, and try writing direct. I have also thought that a A.H. Sprite or MG Midget or Mini backing plate and/or drum could be adapted by a machine shop. --- Steve Evans <sevans1@...> wrote: Yes Bob, They are still looking (it has been over 2 weeks now with at __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
