Ideally, they are brazed joints. The connection I need to make is on the low/liquid side. Higher silver content means a harder joint. I have never brazed before, but the recommendation that nitrogen be flowing through the joint as it is brazed, creates another hurdle. I'm starting to get scared off by the job.
I also considered hacking at it and if it doesn't work, I'll call a repair company and tell them the last guy that worked on it left it that way and walked off the job. (No need to know that I was the last guy that worked on it).
