Just last week, I refurbed my F83 with parts and instructions from Ritchie. The new O-Ring, Globe, Diaphragm and filler screw O- Ring came to around $30. I filled it with Odorless Mineral Spirits. They recommend you chill the mineral spirits prior to filling to prevent bubbles. The fluid contracts in the cold.
Mine came out as good as new. Plus it was very simple. All the instructions and contact info is on their web site.
