Thanks John I’ll start searching for a more modern style. Out of curiosity have you ever heard of ways to soften or “renew” the diaphragms? Is that a thing? | ||

Ways to soften and rejuvenate rubber
You could try some of those automatic transmission in a bottle rebuild stuff, that might help I would be very leery of a water valve seal as it may fail at any time certainly wouldn’t use it for my every day machine that’s constantly under pressure. But it would be an interesting experiment.
I don’t think it would be too hard to find an entire water valve because those used to be all over the place. They had a universal replacement valve for those machines. John | ||

I think I’ll try both; I’ll keep checking eBay for parts and universal valves - I can be patient :) | ||
