I purchased a Miranda Sensorex for the princely sum of $10 with lens. The light meter works perfectly. The only issue was the cocking leaver was loose.

I disassembled the cover, down to the cocking leaver and tightened the screws. I think I screwed up the reassembly because now I have to cock the lever twice on certain speeds to be able to fire the shutter. If I cock the lever once, it doesn't fire correctly. If I cock the lever a second time, it fires properly. Generally this issue arises on 1/60 or faster.

What have I done wrong on the assembly? It didn't do that prior to taking apart.

Thanks
