    We purchased a second-hand International 9800 model 1995 and we are on the process of restoration. I never opened this thing before and I don't know if this is repairable. Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you

    That is a standard MV3 valve, or dash park brake valve. There are orings in side that dry out/rot. You would replace that whole valve.

    Can I replace just the orings? I'm in Philippines and spare parts for these American trucks are very limited. And I guess this whole valve is too expensive.. Thanks

    Be very care/full taking the valve apart over a pan, springs and parts will be everywhere after pulling face off front of valve, o/ rings are smaller/thiner than ones found at hardware store?

    I will try to dismantle this whole thing tomorrow and will check if I can find similar Oring from auto supply stores here. I found a replacement valve and it costs $130 including shipping from Ebay.

    This truck has been out of operation for more than 3 months but we always turn the engine ON almost everyday to warm-up everything. I'll see if what I can do tomorrow. Thanks

    Sometimes you can just wiggle the buttons up and down to help slow down the leaks. Yes, you can install a seal/oring kit. I'm not a big believer in that. The valving is just plastic and also several years old. It will be worn. I recommend to replace it and be done with it.
