 :grin: yeahh haha.  Had it in my bookmarks bar as I done it other day.  Need to make sure you get something to tightly fit the alignment gap as I found out the hard way after using a nail it wouldn't go in 5th and made it worse until I did it with a thicker nail

Check the oil quality and level 1st, might be worth changing the oil.
