All I can figure is the thorough cleaning did something. I took my new-to-me Taurus 66 that had a little timing issue on one cylinder out and shot it a couple of times and I've cleaned it a couple of times, scrubbed it up. Haven't taken the plate off it, though. I need to do that and make sure all's fine inside.
Anyway, it had a slight timing issue on one cylinder that didn't affect function, but allowed me to bargain on it. Well, it's gone. Messing with it after I cleaned it up yesterday and it times perfect. Only thing I can think is maybe the works was a little dry inside and some of the gun oil has loosened up the cylinder pawl to work properly or something. I'm going to pull it apart today.
