that prevents leaving one fork engaged while moving to another. If
one of the three cables is broken, it will stay in whatever gear

I would suggest the use of a pair of dyke cutters to clip the edges of the

If you have some with long handles so you have better leverage, even
better. You should be able to go around the entire grill edge rather
quickly and remove it cleanly.

That's what I was afraid of. I may put a light on the connection, see if the

the valve.
Looks like a rebuilt PBU is about $150, that's less than a new valve from the
