My LIVP is in annual now, so I've pulled everything out for a thorough inspection (and floor vacuuming of the accumulum of dirt).

I note the gear down hand pump hydralic valve (between the front seats) has a small weeping leak of hydralic fluid.  It appears to be from the bottom gaskets or ring seals.  I'm about to dive into that subject, but I am posting to others who have dealt with it.  Lessons learned?  Best fix technique?  Complications and pitfalls encountered?  Cheaper to just replace?

Share your past experience.  Thanks.
