Could be the slow speed governor needs a washing. Or possibly gear
inside body that links slow speed governor to ss dial is off by just one
tooth. Holes in brass gear (at either end) correspond to B and 1/2000,
but I bet your guy knows that. If off by just one tooth, most speeds
can be good while some might be erratic.
Wednesday afternoon I had some chest pains (like someone digging their
knuckle in). Was taken from my doctors office by ambulance and had an
angiagram and stent installed. Total elapsed time from doctor visit to
stent, less than 2 hours. I feel much better now and am catching up
with mail. Yeah, "enjoy every sandwich".
