I recently got myself a GPO 746. A very old rotary dial pulse dialling
type telephone.
Usually, to dial a number you just put your finger in the hole and
turn it. HOWEVER. The thing doesn't "turn back" correctly. It'll give
a pickup as if I just picked up the phone again. I think this is
because it's not going back as fast as it should.
If I pull a number and push it back into position manually, a bit
faster. It'll dial that number! So I think the retaining springs
inside are a bit loose. Would anyone here know how I could either
tighten this spring or would I have to get a new spring?
Thanks very much in advance!
