Hmm.  Any suggestions on freeing up the action?  It operates
perfectly, save that it loves to stick just shy of full return.  $250
is a little hard to swallow right now.

Odd part was there was a ton of corroded 'fuzz' in the chamber inside
the power booster- had to use a air nozzle to blow it out after I
took off the MC.  The outside of the piston itself looked absolutely
fine though, not a speck of rust.  I'm beginning to wonder if the
power booster was sticking up, not the MC.

Also, no crap came out of the MC when I drained/flushed it, and i
flushed it pretty well when I took it off...hmmm.
