Thanks to every one who replied. Ithaca5E, that was where the noise was coming from. So I did as you said and it worked great. I had never done this before but as you said it was nothing. I cleaned the springs and the housing/hole good and that took care of the noise. This just saved me quite a few dollars as I would have had to ship and insure it to someone. Now I'll know how to do it again if I ever need too. I owe you one.
Thanks again
Tom
