Thanks both. I'll look for a screw......

My '32 4 speeder has the locking screw as well..John

Later thirties models have a small locking screw (1/8 inch dia approximately as a guess) but  the tube itself is normally a faily tight fit and sometimes need heat to remove.

This tube seems loose in the gearbox casting of my 1931 Model 10. The kickstart shaft itself seems to have the correct sort of clearance in the tube - it's the tube moving in the gearbox casting. I haven't delved too far inside yet.

Although this box is specific to the model (like almost everything else) I believe this layout is similar on other 3-speeders. I was convinced I'd seen a thread here about it but must be mistaken.

Any suggestions?
