Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to provide an update and express thanks for the help getting
my 15-ASR to work.  After looking into all the very helpful suggestions,
the final problem turned out to be the gap between the spacing helical on
the main shaft and the fiber spacing gear on the vertical spacing shaft.
Apparently the fiber gear has expanded somewhat over the years and closed
up the gap between itself and the metal helical.  We backed off the
pressure between those two gears a bit and the spacing problems cleared
up!  The intermittent nature of the spacing problem indicates that the
fiber gear has expanded into a slightly out-of-round shape.

I've added video of the now-working 15 below.

Thanks again!
