It's a Puzzlement!

Hey all,
I'm trying to get the touch of a two year old M&H "BB" within limits of
Upweight/Downweight. I've checked ALL of the pinning, it's in specs. I
properly eased all the keys, they're in specs. I buffed the capstans and
coated with Emralon. The Wippen Foot Felt and the Let-off Felt has been
treated with dry Teflon. The hammers were surfaced. The knuckles were
bolstered, strip sanded and treated with Microfine Teflon. The hammers tails
were surfaced. The key pins were cleaned, polished and sprayed with dry
Teflon. The action has been Regulated to a gnat's eyebrow. Most of the U/D
weights are in the 16 to 20 difference. However, there are 24 notes that are
just way out of spec. These notes are interspersed through out the whole
action.
I've checked everything, I can think of, and am at a lose. Feedback would be
appreciated!!!!
I was up til' 4am finishing this thingee, so I may be missing something!
Help! Gotta return the action this afternoon! :-(
