Dan,

The problem is finding anyone with the rebuild parts for the A-8. I've been told that they are no longer available, unless someone has a good set hidden away. I have two A-8 regulators, but I can't even give them away without an overhaul.

I had the A8A in my Libelle rebuilt and yellow-tagged more than 30 years ago. The shop said they used their last good bourdon tube on it, so they were officially out of the A8A rebuilding business. The parts situation has most likely not improved since then, so I think it is time to retire these old devices.

Scott - I see brand new A14s offered for sale on their web-site but no new A8As. Even doing a key-word search does not return a hit. Maybe they are able to recondition an A8A.
Sorry for the thread-drift!
