It's weeping oil (even more than "acceptable"), can I loosen the 4 screws
to add gasket goop without misaligning the plunger/spring thingy behind it
or is it safe to remove entirely while in place without something going
"sprong"?

Thanks,

Yeah that=E2=80=99s what I=E2=80=99m thinking, however before the surgery th=
ere was a definite distinction when it engaged and the wheels turned faster.=
   Will road test it before panicking.
