I got the upper transmission shaft back in today and was going to check the gear mesh but ran into two problems. The prussian blue did not seem to like the temperature, around 16 F, even though I had kept it inside and then in my pocket. It seemed that as soon as I touched it to the gear teeth it became a very thick paste that was hard to spread into an even film. The second problem was that the upper shaft has about 1/8" of play at the front end which it seems to me is likely to throw off the reading. It looks like I will have to unsplit the TA from the transmission before checking the mesh. I got started taking the TA apart to replace the output shaft/constant mesh gear but I have a way to go yet. I had it all apart back in the summer so at least there should not be any stuck bolts or any excessive level of confusion. I will get back at it tomorrow, which is supposed to be warmer. Zach
