Hello Rob. I've also heard of soaking the tuning cap in automatic transmission fluid. This was an old trick we used to do to quiet noisy valve lifters. I don't know if I would put that in my wife's KitchenAid! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

P.S. Don't get brake cleaner on painted surfaces! (don't ask me how I know ...)
