    Only single strikes from a Boston

    I just finished the arduous task of servicing a Boston Double barrel movement. All the levers internal & external are moving freely. circled items are in pre-service position. It only strikes singles anytime..... if I manually move the rack, it will strike multiples.

    Help Suspect fusee mainspring now…..

    Thank you all for your helpful replies ! Alex - I am glad you saw my thread. The pen ball fixed the issue. You can see it in this photo. I wish that it was secured better but I think the pressure & the oil film keeps it in place.
