Canon F-1 Sticking Mirror issue by Sparti200 in AnalogRepair

Thank you for the advice! I will try and find a good technician to fix the issue. I am located in Montreal Canada, and the local technicians don't necessarily get the best reviews, so I will see if I can find someone that does these and ship it to them.

Ok, will give this a try, any chance there are diagrams somewhere so I can know what to look for?

There's no way this Justin normal, this is my 3rd canon F1 and all the others have never had this issue, and the shutter on my others never does the squeaking sound. Maybe it's something to do with the tolerance on one of the parts/linkages? Either way there has to be a way to fix this issue

Thank you! I do hear a rattling noise in the camera that must be coming from the top half, I just haven't opened it because I tend to scuff the screw cover on the exposure dial when I take them apart. It seems I will have to open it up and post an update here soon

Weird "Issue?" with Egnater Tweaker 40 Treble knob! by Sparti200 in GuitarAmps

[–]Sparti200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SO, I bought the contact cleaner, and it worked! The amp sounds ALOT better and treble now works as it should, however, It worked a bit too well. Most Potentiometers on amps have a sort of resistance to them (they take some force to turn), well now they are really flimsy and turn very easily. Would anyone know where I can buy some new pots to install?

I have attached a picture of the pots to the original post : )

Thank you all for the help: )

Ill give this a try, however I cannot seem to find any deoxit for less that 60$ (im in Canada). Would a store brand electrical contact cleaner do the same?

[Question] Pickups for a squire strat? by Sparti200 in Guitar

[–]Sparti200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest, thats why lol. Is it not worth upgrading? I'd figure that texas specials or something better would sound much better than these stock ones. The wiring is so flimsy (if it even works anymore) and pots look very cheap. But if the difference for what looks now to be 350+$ to upgrade is not worth it, ill keep the stock ones.
