Are parts - specifically feedscrews, gears and 2/4 adapters interchangeable 
between Columbia BE's and BF's? I'm sure someone out there knows...

I'm coming into this conversaiton a bit late but I don't think they can be 
interchanged because the BF has a longer feedscrew. The BE feedscrew would be 
too short for the BF,and the BF would be too long for the BE.

[Phono-L] Spring grease

2012-05-02 Thread Darrell Lehman
It's been years (decades... ?) since I re-greased a Victrola motor - 
can't even find what I used to use so.. anybody got a recommendation 
as to what kind of grease to use - brand/model number would be nice but 
anything's a start.


thanks, Darrell

Re: [Phono-L] Spring grease

2012-05-02 Thread Ron L'Herault
I'll be buying more soon, but I've been using grease I found at an
automotive store.  It was a molybdenum based grease with graphite.I've
had the present container for a good number of years now and it seems to be
the same consistency as it was originally, no signs of getting dried
out/stiffer.

Are you able to remove the kit and put it back to 2 minute or is the feedscrew 
part of it?

Hi Darell,

I've been using Moly-Graph No. 3141 graphite grease ( by Sta-Lube)  for years 
without any problems.  I've checked on the internet and it's still being sold.  
You can probably find it at automotive stores too.  It's probably very similar 
to the grease that  Ron L uses.

[Phono-L] Re grease

I use Mobile 1 synthetic grease for springs, and I mix in some graphite to help 
along.  I use synthetic castrol on  the motor with not too much problems,.
