[QUOTE="GypsyGoldAu, post: 182626, member: 5873"] Hey Wally.... the coil end the bolt goes through is usually just glued in. I'd remove it from the coil, give it a quick vigorous twist to break the seal, remove it from the shaft & clean. Then using some araldite put it back together with the box & coil flat and allow to cure. I've bought a new shaft in the past and the end fitting was actually loose from new, perhaps yours is too? Try it out, their a very basic fitting, and the end piece is cheap enough if it breaks for replacing. Alternately, if it's a new one, return to place of purchase and exchange??? Gypsy [/QUOTE]
