Long story,don't know how to shorten it.My clock would gain hours now and then but never when I was watching,I thought it must be fluttering and raised the fork.For some reason the fork would not tighten on the suspinsion spring and I applied too much force and kinked the spring so I replaced it. Trouble is now it ran too fast so I tried thinning the spring and now it won't run for more than a few minutes.
The clock is in beat and the escapement looks good to me. The pendulem rotates about one and one quarter revolutions per tick and gradually loses power and stops.
I have stared at this thing until I am going blind and must have twenty hours invested in it by now.Any ideas? Remember it was running until I thinned the spring.
