Sam - Sorry to hear of your dilemma.  Glad to know you found the fix!!  I'm not mechanical, but the subject line caught my eye. :)  You sound like a great friend.  Sorry it was time-consuming and kinda pricey.  I'll keep this great information in mind if I run into the same problem.  Or call you! More Cowbell!!

Sam, Sam, Sam.  The friend price is NOT free.  It's supposed to be a six pack and a pizza!

When I do work as a friend, I'm not free. I require a margarita and some jalapeño nachos!

Happy Holidays!

Hmm, margarita and jalapeno nachos might be cheaper than a six pack and pizza. 

Dang low baller friend, Russel!

I’m not sure Jim Morrison was ever in a state of mind to deal with faulty gas furnaces. J♪♫♫♪

Sandpaper may cost .30 cents, but the techs knowledge and experience are clearly worth a lot more :) Btw, that's a nice diagram.
