I have a Chickering shortened action which had tremendously sluggish =
hammers.
I gave it one treatment of 70% alcohol and 30% H2O with a hypo =
syringe. It
helped. I repeated the treatment the second time and yeilded an even =
better
result. The question is if one is good and two is better, should I =
give it a
3rd pass? OR can a third treatment be too much or
harmful?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Julia Gottchall,<BR>Reading PA
