Louis,
I've been told that the original cylinders are not repairable. However,
I'd give it to your neighbor and see if he can replace the seals in it.
Can't hurt. Otherwise, it is a replacement part. Terry and Bob both have
them, I think at $100 ea.

Terry Tanner originally designed the system. After him, several people
copied them and tried to make various minor modifications. As to how's you
have, if you have a large steel box welded to your rear bumper my guess is
that you have one of Terry's systems. Terry also used KIP solenoids on
the dist. panel behind the drivers seat. I really don't know what the
differences are in the other systems.
