<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Today, I took apart my tachometer and was able to flush
all the old grease (well most of it I think) from the bearing where the cable
connects. I held it "face up" so I wouldn't get crap in or on the cup or
the magnet and used carburetor cleaner and compressed air until clear fluid came
out. It turned pretty smootly after that. I put a few drops of silicone spray
on a screwdriver and worked it into the bushing just to get some lubricant
in there. I thought about using white lithium grease but figured it might be too
thick. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>After re-installing the tach, there is no more noise and
in fact it seems much smoother now.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I received my front brake shims yesterday so I am going to
install those this weekend along with a set of the vinyl covered door top
pieces. That should be interesting.. It's suppose to rain here all day tomorrow
so I should have plenty of time.</FONT></DIV>
