Well, as maybe suspected .... both primary shoes were on one side, and both secondary on the other. Landing pads are pretty groovy and the contamination from the rear was a bit worse than initially observed.
New seals and shoes
on the wayyyyyyyy.
Now the return springs ... pri and sec look identical, same color (blue), same wire gauge and all. Were they the same on these models ? I saw no mention in the shop manual of them being different.
Thanks again.
