I had a feeling it was gonna be the case, but there was hope! Under Pressure, Bill, got it in a box of parts from an estate sale. No known history. Feel bad he took the time to send it out and the $32 US that cost him, and refuses any reimbursement!

You're pretty crafty... try knocking the guts out and replace them?

I have an NOS "319" somewhere on a UPS truck. It was loaded on a truck Thursday and our road was washed out and loaded on a truck again this morning, but that truck doesn't appear to have ever left the facility 40 miles away. Not showing out for delivery.

But ya... gonna see if I can get the nice 359 case gutted out, but unsure with the epoxy fill how that'll go putting another back into the can.

Sounds like a real good dude. Maybe you could sneak some money into his PP account or some such?

Here's an article for removing potting compound. How to Remove Potting Compound - Potting Compound Manufacturer
And of course, new epoxy potting compound is just an amazon click away.

And no sooner had I pulled the dead 359 off, the UPS truck appears. We have an NOS 319 winner.

Hate when my own pictures remind me of stuff.... NOS ballast I got from Ray a while back @HALIFAXHOPS . Verified same ohms reading as the one on car, that was painted Black, and installed the new one.
