Thought I had to share this - last time I cleaned out a deep fat fryer there was less mess than this. Another pin pallet movement. Unsurprisingly dunking it in Castrol GTX didn't fix the broken mainspring which is the only issue I've found. Any tips for the dial? Also covered in oil. Cleaned up quite nicely -

Hi Nev . No i didn't try this balance in the movement as it didn't run and the deformed staff broke when i removed the roller. Problem is what i think is the correct staff for this movement, the hub seat, roller and collet profiles are all too small for those parts of the assembly. The movement listed on Ranfft's site is correct my movement and the nos staffs i have match the ronda measurements. I can only assume that the wheel , roller and collet openings have all been broached to make them fit an oversized staff, both staff pivots had also been modified. -
That helps a great deal. Many thanks! Regards Andy -
Yes, threw it on the demagnetizer before I cleaned it to be sure. This picture doesn't show it well, but I can definitely see liquid where the turns meet up.
