Yeah maybe I need to soak it in some PB blaster that will make it better. Unfortunately can’t say much about that adjustment plate would have been good if the screw wasn’t stripped to kingdom come.

Well folks! I think JerryVan is right! After cleaning up the new Halfnut I got from Croakin frog’s. I’ve Possibly might have “fixed” my tracking issue?

I’m really not ready to make a victory lap because Murphy and his books of laws haven’t come to sabotage this YET.

So here is a 2 and 4 minute record playing on my Triumph.

Ok now that I’m sorta kinda sure my tracking is fixed (for now) I hooked up the Tea Tray horn and stand up and it played a 4 minute record with no problems. I’m thinking, did they make a different crane for using a Cygnet on a Triumph?

I think it’s time to buy from Brian again!
