<VV> I am always going 40

[Geoffrey A Johnson]

Spraying stuff at it wont fix the problem like Tony says.  I just had to 
do this on my 63.  If it is sticking it will not really get any lube to 
the place it needs, and WD-40 wont be adequate.  Take it apart, or have 
someone do this.  If it is dry, like it most likely is it is going to 
wallow out the bushings in the back of the housing and make the problem 
worse.  Also the Odometer needs grease most likely as well.
