In the 147...amp? No.
part of the leslie motor which engages the rod to the o-ring (but maybe I'm not remembering that correctly).
Anyway, I think there's a little spring with that can wear (kind of rare though).  I doubt that's what the prob is,  though it might be worth a look.

then again bearings "wearing out" is kind of rare too....no? (suddenly I'm french).
I suppose it depends on the age/care it's had.
