FWIW I would have the seller open it up for you if you find one. I have four of them and they have all had water in them except for one.

Water in where and what damage does it cause? The one I pictured is the one I just purchased.

Thanks

Not sure, I guess whatever I'll need to get it operational. I know I'll need a controller, solenoid and maybe some new cable, but I think I can source that. Also think I need the mounting bracketry or at least plans/dimensions for that. Maybe I can...ahem..attempt to fabricate that. I don't have it in my possession yet. Once I do I'll know more. I'm fairly certain it'll need an overhaul

Thanks

Joe
