Have rebuilt that clock in mine. Even took the motor apart and put in
new windings. Look for worn bushings
and you may have to use shims or brass washers to align the wheels.
There are no parts. The relay was bad so used a mercury plate relay,
spst so used 12 v relays to do the job. Had to build a 12v supply from
the 6,3v/ Works great and is very accurate. Also replaced the buzzer
with a 12v chime. Nice.

I've tried adjusting the detent spring till I'm blue in the face, it is quite bent up and that's more than likely the original problem. I see the 10's wheel drag a bit too much on the hour wheel, maybe something else is worn?
