    As the title states...

    I tighten it up, it loosens off after a lap or 2 pretty much to default stiffness (or less). Anyone else with this issue?

    I have replaced the grease inside with better grease to keep it smooth as butter, but the tension screw "seems" to back off?

    I also noticed inside that on the opposite side of the tension screw there's another drilled and threaded empty hole... i'm thinking of adding a second tension screw..

    Anyone tried that with success?

    yes you have to put some fix to the tension screw, becuse went you move it you are removing the old one, that screw is not autoblock screw..
    and for that need some fix, example Nural 50.
    with that the screw will not move, and you will have the needed stiffness.
