chillcat,
Chris, aka 'snowbilt' suggestion that you have the cylinders rebuilt is the best, easiest and least expensive way to go. Dennis rebuilds better than new with a 3 yr. warranty for $30@ + shipping. Also, if one side has gone out, the other is a matter of time. Send them both. Dennis turns these around next day after receipt so you'll have them back quickly. Follow Chris' great instructions on getting these cylinders out and back in.
Dennis' contact info is:

Good luck and have fun with this easy DIY-
