So, the gear oil and injection oil have been changed.
Still wasn't running the way I like it. Barely getting over 30, harmonic vibration around 32. Could still pull 40+ on the downhill, but uphill was sucking and flats again, only like 32mph.
Decided to take a peek at the variator again, to see what the hell was going on.
Oh, the belt is stopping there? That's no good! See the dust on the pulley!?!
Same thing on the inside, just not making it to the outside of the variator.
Looking a little dusty in there, belt must be getting worn a bit!
Well, the spring looks clean, maybe it's not too bad!
I don't like how the wear marks look inside the slider/roller slots! (started, just a bit, to flat spot the Malossi rollers in 100 miles)
Ahh! Look at that top slider, looks like it tipped on me, maybe I'll put it back together!
Not bad, only a little wear!
Lets see how far the belt travels now!
Well, I haven't taken it back apart since this, but I did go for a spin. 30ish uphill, 35 on short flats, 42 on long flats and 45+ on the downhill! That's what I'm talking about! The vibration is gone and there is just the slightest rattle at certain a few different RPM, but I suspect it's just the sliders doing their thing!
