Question T337C Fuel Selector Valve

Help! I've got a fuel selector valve which hangs up mid-way to the AUX position. Does anyone know of a company which repairs/overhauls these things? McFarlane Aviation doesn't.

African 337,

Do you happen to know how many hours were on the plane, and if the flap cables have ever been removed for inspection (if so, how many hours ago?). What year and model 337 was it?
