I am looking for some technical advice regarding servicing my scuba
cylinder valves. 

Specifics:  I have an old-style (probably circa 1968) Scubapro valve on
a steel 72 cylinder. The valve is the style that had a built-in pressure
gauge that looks like a black rod. Is there any source of blow-up
diagrams of these valves? Anyway, I opened the valve. The seat looks
quite worn and probably needs to be replaced. Any ideas on where/how I
go about that? My last question has to do with the burst disc. When I
removed the hex nut I can see the dimpled burst disc (it looks like
copper). I haven't been able to figure out how to remove the disc so
that I can replace it with a new one. I've been reluctant to push and
prod things hard.

I would appreciate any advice you might care to offer. Please reply
privately so as not to bother other list members. TIA.

Arnie
