    Clean out the pivot hole in the center of the nylon pawl, (Q-tip dipped in Marvel Mistry oil.) Clean the pivot pin. Clean the slot the steel spring rides in with a piece of string, but do not lubricate. I was using a spray on silicon lub on the nylon. It doesn’t attract dirt or harden like grease.
