ok im down to the gear box, and started removing a few gears one at a time. i think found the problem. I noticed that the gears are stacked above each other and held in place by a pin running down the center of both gears....
ill try and get pics up later so it makes sense. one of the pins is loose. the base where the pin sits got widen out. im gonna try and super glue the pin so it doesnt move. if it does move, the gear's teeth wont make contant with the other gear. thats where the problem is. ill keep you posted. |
