Sarco 31L - Have you ever opened one up to clean it/replace parts?

My question is basically in the title. I've got one I'd like to open up and see if the float is still doing its job before I price up a boiler replacement. Have any of you purchased replacement parts for one?
And yes. This is a mess. It's unbelievable what goes on out here in Brooklyn, NYC.

I've never taken one apart but have always wanted to.
Have to you ever used a Barnes and Jones Condensator to replace one?

As long as you're using a Vaporstat and the 31L Return Trap isn't blowing steam into the dry return, you should be OK.All Steamed Up, Inc.
