Schwander action where jacks don't return

Greetings,

             In this humid summer weather, I have found that the pin bushings 
absorb moisture from the atmosphere. A 5% alcohol to 95% H2O solution applied 
with a syringe does the trick. It takes about 24 hours to dry, thus 
evaporating the excess humidity (H2O absorbed by the bushing felt)

             If there are no bushings, as you claim, (which I have never seen 
a piano without them) then I would say possibly the wood itself has absorbed 
moisture, hence making the action center tight. I wouldn't know if the same 
solution as above would work. It may, because alchohol absorbs water.
