Ampico B Unit Valves
By Bruce Clark

Soon I will be restoring a set of Ampico ball bleed unit valves.
I would enjoy hearing from others who have performed this monumental
task.

It has been thirty years since I last tackled this tricky project,
and it would be refreshing to hear from others with lots of experience.
These questions in particular: what is the pouch leather thickness, and
to lightly rubberize or not?  In the past, I used Carter's rubber
cement very well thinned with naptha.
