Aloha. I didn't have an issue as I just used rattle can paint. Maybe there was wax or polish on it? Clean with rubbing alcohol to remove whatever maybe on there.

If you can get a kit to rebuild and you think you can do it. Go that route! I took my original PS... Sent it out to rebuild, it blew after 50 miles. Got a second one.. Had no assist with low idle. Third one FINALLY WORKED! What a PIA.
Good luck!
Mahalo for serving! I'm in the life safety field and appreciate all you do. Time to look for some consulting work. Start your own buisness and do fire/safety inspection!
Congrats!
