<< manchester tank no longer sells their version of the valve either.

Manchester Tank Co, bought the Autofill valve co, out about 10 years
ago.
They were the sole supplier of the autofill valve.
They are the only place to get the valve rebuilt at for approximately
$80.00 plus shipping both ways.
If the valve's body is made out of aluminum, it is not rebuildable.
Throw it away.
The only sensible thing to do is convert the tank to a virtually trouble
free manual valve,and a manual bleed valve.
The cost for this conversion is about $39.00 plus shipping.
