Wurlitzer bass sustain problem

Some good answers out there - one additional thing to look out for:

The little capstan-type screw for damper pedal stop adjustment can strip out 
the wood during 'heavy' pedaling.  I found this out on a call back.  I had 
wrongly assumed that the short rod shifted in a move, put it back, checked 
everything and went on my merry way.  Next day all the bass strings are 
ringing again!  Adjusted capstan, stepped on 'the gas pedal', heard a little 
thunk, and I was back to square one.

A good old fashioned chunk of felt, some glue, and I be watching for lyre 
damage next time!
