Charles drove up, grabbed his tools and went under my trailer.
After an hour and a half working on his back he brought out the rod that had connected my pull handle with the valve.
One end of the rod had wallered out and let the pull handle pull out. The aluminum had crystallized over 20 years. Charles will get a new rod and return next week to finish the job. You know the meaning of wallered? The treads had enlarged from wear and would not grip.
