I've had mine out, but don't recall any plastic pieces in there. The pin that the toothed sector pivots on had wallowed out the hole in the sheet metal frame. I enlarged and made round again, the hole in the frame, with a stepped sheet metal bit. I ended up turning a new pivot pin, as well. In the past, I had removed the assembly to try and recut the teeth on the sector with a file. It's better now, but still tends to slip if I get aggressive with it. For $46, I should just replace it. |
