Jerry,
Sorry to hear about the Lyme disease when you already have your hands full with two little ones.  If you want the tubes tested, I'd be happy to test them for you on my emissions tester, Jackson 648S.  You'd have to mail them to me.  I can test and return them.  If you can't find anyone locally and want to send them, pm me so we can work out details.
