Ecellente as they say in Italy!

Glad you got it sorted and found the reason why, i haven't forgotten about your earlier request for suppliers of new weights, springs etc to refurb your other dizzy, just got a mental block on the name of them at present! Hopefully it will come to me later and i can find a lnk for you!
