Message: [QUOTE="pesky nz, post: 1418485, member: 120687"] oil residue can be tough stuff on one end of the scale and my over cleaning once cost me on the opposite end. Carefully cleaned PE175 gearbox and reasembled motor filled gearbox and started up, within 10 seconds 1 free spinning gear under no load started to weld itself to shaft. Had to strip down and press off outter gear to find siezed gear and with no available parts had to pollish shaft and hone inside gear for what turned out to be a long term fix. [/QUOTE]
