Warren;
Might be an idea to go into the tuner (top) use a tooth pick and just
slightly move the coils, making sure not to disturb them too much. and watch
for changes. If this thing was into another shop, some fly-by nighter may
have decides the coils didn't look very neat and decided to re-arrange
them...;-)
