Hi Steve I also have the springtime distiller. Gave up and trying to repair myself. Removed the valve assembly from the water inlet and replaced the valve but in the process of blowing out the inlet cylinder etc the metal plunger and spring came flying out. Im not sure what order to put these back in. Hope you can offer advice. Thank you!
