After two or three firings the mirror seems to get all tired as if it can't make it all the way up. Works like a dream if I hold it upside down, so I'd guess at a weak spring, or something like that. Question is, is it a spring that can easily be got at, and if got at, easily replaced or shortened. Or am I way off ? Is it possibly just another lube problem?
