I got it degreased today, can see things a little clearer now and it’s not such a greasy pig to handle.Structurally, the 8X18s, 9X19s, 9X20s and the like are almost identical. Much of the "bragging" about center height and length between centers is a matter of marketing. How deeply the tail center fits into the tailstock. The carriage, well the apron has two different feed mechanisms for feed per revolution versus threading. The feed is driven by half nuts, for threading it uses a key running in a slot on the lead screw. There is an "interlock" to prevent engaging both at the same time. You should concentrate there for a loose piece not rotating fully, allowing the undesired kick out. Other than a piece of scrap on the cam follower, a loose cam is likely the problem. Not an absolute answer, but the apron has a number of adjustments.

My brother is a Richard, I called him Rick for 60 years. Now he is Richard? WtfMy father used the name Dick from the time I was born until his mid 80s.
Then he decided he wanted to be called Richard and stayed that way until he died at 92.
