Rick,
Not sure what exactly your talking about as far as a hidden bolt.  I check for that and don't see one.  
thanks,
Curt

On a "Type #2" drive (if that's what you find you have), there is also a 
long bolt that is hidden inside the center of the drive spring (that drives 
the trip finger forward).  If this bolt backs out a little, everything with 
the trip will LOOK like it's working just dandy when you spin the flywheels, 
but it will in fact not snap forward fast enough to produce a spark.
