I don’t know about that, but I know I had a clock come in a while back that they said had ran fine before, but just quit. I could smell the wd40 when he handed it to me. I opened the case and wd40 was running out of the springs. I asked about it, and excitedly told me that he oiled that way every year for the last 25 years. Believe it or not after soaking it in Naptha and mineral oil for two hours, I didn’t need a single bushing. the pivot needed very little attention, but the winding springs had to be recleaned.Mahlon
