I believe most of the stoppers installed in that vintage were Easy Locks. They are OK. Years of sunshine have likely weakened the levers. That mixed with the irritating operational requirement of never stopping a static line (I has to be moving through the stopper as its closing or it jams so hard you sometimes break the aging levers while trying to open it) I would seriously recommend changing out to newer technology. It's been on my to do list for 5 years. 3 broken levers later i'm running out of spares so I better do this soon.
