The  reset button on my refill valve for my propane tank is stuck.  I
have  not been able to find rebuild kits anywhere.  Has anyone
successfully  taken apart and put back together this valve without a
rebuild  kit?

Pius, throw that valve in the garbage can....fast  !  Useless piece of junk !
 Get a standard fill valve and  complimentary spit valve as replacements and
you will never have this problem  again.
