[TenTec] PTO non-rebuild solution

[dbp@tds.net]

 I have had great success bathung the PTO mechanism in "Tri-Flo" bicycle chain lubricant. It is a Teflon oil that sticks very easily to the slow moving parts of the PTO. The last time I used it was more than one year ago and the PTO is still flawless. Nothing in the PTO to hurt that I can find. I have squirted it in the PTO until it has washed out all the old grease, and let it drain onto newspaper over nite before reassembling. By then it is well lubed. Lots easier than a rebiuld, unless you are a purist.
 Has anyone who has tried this method found any fault i.e. components value changing, I haven't.
