Hi Jim...
 I once had a problem with a 2m rig once.  I enlisted the assistance of a 
local Elmer who had me open it on his work bench, while he looked over 
my shoulder and walked me through the process of diagnosis and repair. 
I used his scope and test equipment under his supervision.
 Maybe you could arrange a similar outing and perform the procedures 
suggested by the Guru under similar circumstances.  I learned a lot, and 
got my rig fixed, with minimal risk I would make it worse on my own.
Maybe you could do that.

I'm reluctant to go in with a screwdriver/alignment tool and start turning
little devices without proper gear as the circuits interact and doing so
could really mess things up.  I have experience at fiddling with something
without knowing what you are doing and without proper equipment.  I think
the phrase is "fix it 'til you break it."  I have experience at this.
