So I have one of these, recapped and aligned, sounds super. Case is warping a bit in rear but one of my better sets. Mr. Radiphile has passed away but does his assement mean a good set?

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM

Thanks guys. I think I'll give the Naval Jelly a try since I can better control where it goes.dconant — 09:23 AM

Just forget this number, it is useless anyway. Simply proceed with your project.morzh — 10:08 PM

My $0.02 is that it is a misprint. I tried to look up the value for the similar 84 and 37-84, and ther is no resistance...MrFixr55 — 09:51 PM
