Greetings,
Me too. I have, on the bench, the action from one of the earliest CF's.
The dampers were leaky, and the cause is the underlevers freezing up. All
the pins had a black something on them, and repinning is the only way I know
that it will continue working. Pro-tec didn't give lasting results on the
same problem several years ago.
