Also, the block could be full of crud. Take the side plate off & look. (Carefull-side plates are sometimes spendy & hard to find.)

We live in an area where REALLY HARD water is common & cruddy blocks are also common. (Could there be some relationship here? Naaaaa-its probably just a coincidence.) (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)
