My favorite emergency fix to the PTO is to inject Triflow, an oil containing Teflon ball bearings. It has at least for a good amount of time, revived several Ten Tec PTOs. My long term fix would be Dow 44 ball bearing grease which is a wide temperature range grease. The factory grease used to be an ordinary petroleum product, and there are far better greases on the market now. -Stuart Rohre K5KVH _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/tentec |
