Greg,
For the rubber O ring, try your local hardware store. I've found them there
when I lost one of mine.
As to replacing the valve, if it's only the O ring, try to get a replacement,
under $.20 to repair. If you need a valve they are running from $45 - $80
I think. Seems to me that I've heard that they have been going up in cost
like crazy over the last couple of years.
Try a local hydrolic shop. If they can't help, then try Terry. I know he has
them.
