Hi, Danilo,

Have you cleaned the slots in the underside of the repetition lever, that
the repetition lever springs ride in?  Missing that can throw everything
else out.

Also, you might want to buy this book if you don't have it already (Buy It
Now price is $19.13, quite a bargain):

Hi! Dean, Tony and David, thanks for your input! I thought the very same,
that since these parts need to be replaced, I can use whats left of them to
educate myself further. The aim, of course, is to make them perform better.
Born out of necessity, actually, a recording session in the middle of the
night, not the best time to call a technician! But that was two years ago,
and a lot of "seeing and feeling" since then, as well as self-studying and
asking technicians that I've met. 

Parts that need replacement will not respond ideally to being regulated, I
guess. This is where the spring tension comes in. I did actually start
working on them, and it was then that this problem arose. They are quite
tense now, and it indeed causes some hammers to double-blow on the strings.
And when I ease them up so that the hammer rises gently when released from
check, the jack starts to not wanting to return under the knuckle properly.
I was convinced it was due to the reduced weight of the hammers, but you've
made me not so sure of that anymore. Knuckles need lubrication? (and
replacement?) Spring needs to be cleaned perhaps? By the way, how would you
diagnose that a spring needs to be replaced (unless broken of course)?

Yes, a mentor would be very welcome, and excuse any language errors, english
is not my native tongue. Very glad to hear about your background, Tony!

Regards, Danilo
