Folks,
Take note. The rebuild kits recently offered MUST be used as a kit.
Beware
of vendors who offer new stock of individual components. My understanding
is they are made by Innocenti (excuse me, I have to sniffle here.....ok)
and they work ok as a set, but raise h**l if mixed with used or NOS gears
and shafts.
