Tom:
I seem to remember Howard Mills >always< preemptively replaces some
component (a cap or two?) inside J-series PTO's whenever he does his famous
rebuilds, likely to avoid the very thing that has happened to you. I cannot
recall details but I've cc'd him on this message in hopes he might respond.
