Thanks Dan...I'm not sure I could follow that youtube video link...it first went to a Montana game camera, with grizzly bears, moose, and a fox that was always running around with something dead in his mouth... :)) (reminded me of my backyard). Messed around some more and got a great video of a guy taking apart a backhoe valve body and a kid helping him, ferkn hilarious but very helpful, then a video from 1950's on breaking down a valve body. Anyways not sure if any of these were intended to be the link you posted, but took me to some very entertaining and helpful video. My take-home message is I'll be pulling that valve body and rebuilding on the bench in the shop. Thanks again for your help!!
I dont know what went went wrong with that link.:mad:

If you have that many leaky valves something external was causing problems. I would look very closely at the tank return connection(s) since excessive back pressure on the tank port is the usual cause.
