I have been searching the forums for anyone that repairs P/V pull through and it seems like the two people that used to do it, don't anymore. Anyone out there still offering this service?

******ALso****

If not, does anyone know where to find P/V's online for less than $120.

I just bought an entire pv set up on ebay (pv assembly, cables, and servo) for $175.00 with shipping. So there are deals out there if you can't find someone to fix them.

I thought he was banned or something until he made things right. Havent heard any "made things right" thread. He did great work for decent prices. Personal problems (car accident/family problems) got to him.
 
Life happens. To bad though. I never dealt w/ him but his reputation was good for a bit. Im having powervalve probs now and would deal w him if he made it right. Gotta give benefit of doubt. But sux to get taken advantage of
 
cut your power tip ..drills a hole right in the middle ,tap some thread .insert your bolts with lock tight .grind the head bolt round ,drills a hole in the head bolt then cut the head bolt so the cable slide ..make sure to remove any sharp edge where the cable slide or it will cut the wire in a short time ....then go ride ..

I had a dozen (or more) transactions that went great. The last was last year when every one else started having problems. It took like 6 weeks to get my parts (usually less than 1 week). Got what I paid for, some weren't so lucky from what I remember. Wrong parts or no parts
 
we are all waiting for the SS power valves that is in R&D stage that a another member has promised are coming..hope this happens before the snow flies.
 
Thanks guys for all the tips. I think i am going to attempt to fix them myself, whats the worse that can happen? hah everything.
