Message	I would start with checking the pressure relief. Ball could have debris preventing seating, or the spring could have gotten weak. I am sure it is rare but it does happen. Anything beyond that is likely worn internals. Mains or rods. Good luck. KKROFFT Now occurs everywhere, simultaneously. But it doesn't have to be experienced the moment it happens.   Every now that ever was is still exactly when it was, when it was now.   Then, in terms of perception, is nothing more than all the nows that are no longer now.   Thus, the difference between now and then is when.    --The Waystoppers Users' Manual
