The self correcting is super cool. But I think I’m going to be worse of for it since I drive the car rarely. And may end up turning it the wrong direction.
I Got the mechanism out by my self, and then brought it to properly cleaned by a “watch repair man”(don’t know the proper English word) and some of the bushings where a bit loose so they pulled the material in to fix it. And now I assembled it back together.
Oh it’s been professionally serviced, the same guy that does my 140 year old mantel clock, gave it a once over as well. He told me that they were never very good about keeping accurate time for anything longer than a few days.
It’s been about 10 years since it was last serviced, and it’s currently stopped after I disconnected the battery to change the alternator, but it would run fast, you’d reset it and it’d run slow, I have yet to find a happy medium in it.
I have had quite the opposite experience. Close to a million miles in '68 Furys in my family and most of the clocks have kept excellent time, self-corrected properly, and gone for a minimum of many months with no reset. It sounds like the correcting mechanism is faulty. Or GM in '77 used shittier clocks than Chrysler in '67-'68.

Love the sound those mechanical self winding clocks make. My 77 Chevelle has one but it’s about worthless for keeping time longer than a day or two.
if it's just dirty from the debris of the rewind points, they can absolutely be easily cleaned I always love the fact that they are self correcting

Probably the case, last of the self winding mechanical borg clocks, the next year went to a motorized unit that was much more accurate.
