[OM] setting infinity focus on Zuiko 35-70/3.6 lens

I have a nice 35-70/3.6 zoom that won't focus to infinity. When the focus
ring hits the infinity stop it is somewhere about 12-15 feet, not infinity.
I already unscrewed the end and spilled all the little 1mm ball bearings...
I got most of them back (I think).

I didn't see anything obvious under the focus ring, so what is the secret?
Any advice or help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim Brokaw
