I followed your advice Ron and took things apart. Yup, things were nasty. I couldn't even get the ball bearings out until I soaked in thinner for several hours. Then cleaned in the ultra cleaner. I really don't know how it even worked. I counted 3 larger balls and 2 smaller balls. I know the bigger balls go outside and the small ones inside. Just to be sure on the inside order, small ball-spring-small ball-shaft, with the large balls put in from the inside out before the shaft is put in? Is synthetic grease ok or is lithium better?.
I noticed a few rough spots on the shaft ball, but it is on the outer part, not the inner (towards the shaft). Nothing noted there.
