Don:
 
I believe that Acetone will work.
If it were styrene monomer, the MEK would have worked. I'm sure that the Toluene wouldn't work. Xylene probable won't work either.
It may be a blend of Acetone, MEK, Iso Buytl Acetate, Iso Propyl Acetate and a few other items.
Let me know how the Acetone works and what reaction you get from it.

I added MEK, but it reacted poorly- clouded a sample.
The vinyl is not virgin as I've thinned it before.  Would this matter if the thinners were different.   Toluene didn't work, either.  I'll try acetone asap.

It might be Acetone. If that doesn't work, It is probable a blend of products like a lacquer thinner.
There are many, many different blends for products that are used to thin a solid material into a gel or paste or liquid.
If the Acetone doesn't work you might also try MEK.
When you smell the vinyl cement does it smell sweet or pungent?
I may know some other tricks if these two don't work.
