Have recently acquired my Fathers old Yashi that has not been used for around 20 years. Have cleaned it up without pulling it apart and it has cleaned up OK. My problem is related to the shutter speed and the F stop component of the coupling ring.

1. The shatter speed does not seem to change when it is changed on the lense. probably sitting at around 1/250 to 1/500 not sure though. Is there a way in which I can fix this?
2. The aperure setting will change up to 5.6 but will go no further (ie 8 etc etc). when I check with the back open the apeture does vary from 2 to 5.6 so that aprt seems to be working. Any suggestions here?

Regards
