At first it jammed and the piston locked back, I thought I had shimmed it too tight and so I removed the shims from the gearbox and when I test it now, it just screeches/squeals Last edited by a moderator: Sep 23, 2014

It seems that fine adjustments are not my thing and it was the motor height, just needs half turns at a time instead of 2 or 3.
