<DIV><FONT size=2>There's no great load on it especially at the speedo end, but
one can't help thinking that if it had grease originally, it needs it. Try
some thicker oil now the thin stuff has penetrated, and see if that will sink it
as you turn it. But what have you got to lose? You were
contemplating buying another anyway, run this until it breaks.</FONT></DIV>

Now I'm just wondering if this thin oil will be sufficient to put it in
service. I can't think of another way to lubricate it without opening it
up.
