One thing which may not be obvious here... the o-rings should be compatible
with hydraulic fluid. Typically this means something other than the
"regular" o-rings you can get at hardware or auto stores. You have to make
sure they are ethylene propylene (EP) -- usually identified by a red mark on
the rubber.
<http://www.vtr.org/maintain/pdwa.html> has a write-up of the process to
rebuild the PDWA. Good article IMO.
Centering the PDWA is best accomplished by ignoring the Haynes/Bentley
instructions and just using a pointed object (like a straight pick) to
manually center the shuttle after the switch is removed. Quick, painless and
very efficient.
