[pianotech] 1940's Steinway console

[David Ilvedson]

You have to have a little lost motion so the jack can get back under.   Also try adjusting the hammer to check closer.   You should be able to tell if you jack spring problems by flipping the jack a few times and seeing if it pops back...how's the damper lift with the key?
