Good News
Seized spindle and table feed are generally fixed.

Bad News
Only 16 of the 18 feeds are happy (feed matrix of 3 in back X 6 in front). When feed 5 or 6 are used in combination with speed 3 (in back) they work for a few seconds and then the front selector lever kicks out and in to neutral very violently. With a borescope the gears look good, no missing teeth, and surprisingly little wear.

Any ideas?

PS used my new wireless borescope.
