You could have saved yourself a lot of trouble by removing the escapement and delay, and just cleaning them. As long as there is no oil or grease on the shutter blades, they are usually best left alone. Then you can adjust the 1 second speed when putting things back.

The Synchro-Compur is not one of my favorite shutters to work on, as usually there is no way to hold the cocking rack in place when dry-firing the shutter with the speed cam removed. Every once in a while you find a design that lets you put the cover retaining ring back on after taking the cover off, and this will hold things together.
