Chris, there are dozens of Threads on brake proportioning valves. Try a search using "proportioning". Some have pics of them dissected. I've taken two apart. Most folks seem to just either just clean them or replace them - with stock, or with an adjustable valve (Tilton, etc.) since they are still available. Here is but one good example - LINK. Like I said above, a 73 used one seems to be working fine (so far) on my 69, and I have a new spare form Alfaholics (for US$ 108 with shipping) for my next brake work session. Cheers,
