I purchased this pressure cooker at a garage sale, and it was missing the pressure regulator and the seal inside the lid was dried out.

Pressure regulator not softly rociking after (?) 20 years of being used 5 times a week.
Fred from Imperial, Nebraska
After 3 years (?) and approximately 1, ... Read more 000 use cycles the old sealing ring gasket was becoming ever more cantankerous to force into \'one more\' use. I work with gaskets at the day job and can just touch a gasket and tell how long it has been in service by how hard it becomes with heat and oxidation. Old gasket removed by hand and placed new lively (resilient) sealing gasket in top of pressure cooker and it seals without drama or extravagant tricks. The new gasket seals up before lid is pushed into locking position! Overpressure plug was nice as the old one was very oxidized and hard and becoming reluctant to pressure seal.
The rack! ...The rack was dark, warped and flange was split from forcing a concave depression into a convex dome. Toss old black and brown in trash, drop new shinny rack into place, Twenty years and well past 1,000 use cycles!
Pressure cooker was very old (50 years); vent pipe/pressure regulator allowed excessive steam to escape.
