Well, I never saw THAT coming! ;-)
Glad you found your problem, but my advise about throwing parts away
is to always save your old parts until the replacements are installed
and working. Then ALWAYS throw old parts that are known to be bad
away. Never let bad parts get mixed with good parts.
Finally, a good way to get a stuck relief valve out is to find a tap
that will screw into the bottom and catch. Then pull it out with
that. That gets it out without doing any important damage.
