Three Wheelin'
My spoiler motor spinning and spinning was the set screw on the coupling adapter on the end of the motor. Tightened that puppy up, bled the system, and off I went.

hah! i know i know.. but I'm not a footballer and my buddy's gonna be at home w bench and some ch11s & STOPLEAK LOL so what else am i gonna do on t-day AM!?
i'd say "wish me luck" but my bad luck could well accrue to your benefit
UPDATE: Dateline Los Angeles: For immediate release:
'02996ttx50 once again brings his spoiler back into full 100% operability with some hydraulic fluid, some liquid wrench to lube the rams a touch, a tailgate of an 86 chevy pickup as a workbench to lay the decklid on, a portable 12v power source, and couple squirts to re-fill the fluid canister until both sides are again equal, and voila! tested during a 50 mile trip home with multiple deployments up/down flawlessly proving once again only that a re-bleed, if done properly, will fully restore them to full and equal functionality. i hope this one lasts another five years.
