Cleaned parts. BTW, I added a small amount of grease between the plates at the center opening.

Now all I have to do is reinstall and test drive.

Successful test drive. The engine idles great and there is no longer a hesitation around 3000 RPM.

Thanks to everyone that has assisted me with this issue.

By documenting my steps hopefully this will help the next NineFourTeener.

Was at moms today.

You found it....
I use whatever cleaner I have laying around...anything to get rid of the grease.
Re grease it with wheel bearing grease, making sure to glob a bit on the ball...and lightly coat the two pieces.

Hopefully you will have felt a difference when in your hand trying to move them before and after you did the cleaning.

With the weak power that vacuum advance canister applies, and sticky old grease, and loads of heat...they don't always retard from partial advance...which causes the high idle, and all sorts of other weird behavior..

It may not solve everything, but at least you know you have done that, it's good for another 40 years....and the rest of the tuning is not that.
