I'd love to hear what you have to say about fixing the late type 3 
clocks, the ones with the transistors and the pancake electrical 
coil. I've never managed to get them going again reliably once they 
start to flake out. 

Can you tell me just what the PROBLEM is? It seems to me that 
the escapement just becomes unreliable, but I haven't been able to 
see what is wrong, and without knowing what is wrong, it's hard to 
correct it.
