If I adjust the 1/125 sec. shutter speed with the eccentric screw of the second curtain release lever as instructed in the my repair manual, I loose the "B" function. (No instructions in manual for setting "B"). The shutter will not remain open with the mirror up until I release the button as it should. It just fires as if it is set to 1/125 sec. (unknown actual speed). If I back off on the screw, "B" will work but 1/125 sec. is eccentric or mirror hangs up?????
