Having trouble sourcing a new or good used AAR valve, all help much appreciated. Can they be reconditioned?

Soak it in a cup of kerosene for a couple days, then give it a couple taps and blow it out. It usually frees them up for years of sitting stuck. Easy to bench test it after to verify its working properly by timing the valve operation.
