Thanks for the response.  I didn't know if that was normal or not and have
not lubricated at all.   I'll take a look at it tonight and let you know
over the next couple of weeks if that fixes it.  Thanks again.

Hello-

Sounds like the advance is sticking.  Do you routinely lubricate it with
some oil on the felt pad under the rotor?

Take care,
