Thumbs down

While we are on the subject of accumulation of dust and the eventual solidification due to moisture, the first place to look when you get a high frequency vibration is the cooling fan on the TR Drive Shaft. It can cause the fan to go out of balance and the imbalance will be reacted by the shaft bearing immediately next to the fan. This will manifest itself in bearing failure.
