OK, last weekend I serviced a 2018 that I received.  Turned out awfully good for a unit that I don't think was ever serviced.  Here's the anal part... The pilot chest is missing one screw. 6-32 x 5/8 slotted.  Hardware store has screw in a philips, somehow it just doesn't look right to me.  Would you have to have an extra screw laying around????

 

Thanks!

Just finished looking. All I have is 6/32"X 1/2". On my next order from Jeff Kane at The Train Tender I will order some 6/32" X 5/8" screws but they are black.  It will be next week when I get the next order. You might be able to get what you want at your local hardware. If you want to wait I can send you 2 of them.

Forest, Thanks for your offer, looks like Chuck is able to bail me out!

There are two screws that hold it on.  The one I have is silver...
