I'll take a look at it tomorrow night after work. I've found some cheap 1571s, but all the same I'd still like to get this problem fixed rather than swapping it out with the mechanisms of a 1571. I'm going to give the alignment program a try (hopefully that will also restore the 3 or 4 1541s I have that no longer work too) and I'll check out this leaf spring as well. |
