I have a Grace 704 arm, which is about 8 years old (still like new :-). The question is, how long does the damping fluid around the uni-pivot last? The fluid in mine now appears to be more like jelly. Is this normal, and if not, how do you get the stuff out? Any help/insights/pity would be greatly appreciated.
