    quote Chris_P:

    Sometimes bad crank bearings (check the fore/aft play in it)

    Some guys put the support ring in upside down, which allows the plate to wobble (easy to check now that plate is off)

    Some just wear with a lot of use I would imagine. I have had to change quite a few that were worn right through.

    Chris,

    The support ring was in correctly and the crank is tight. As this is a power head of unknown provenance it is possible parts and pieces have been changed before.

    I am good to go with my spare parts.
