TR13....That helps! Thank you. Now just need to pick up some tools -- I'm a total newbie to photo repairs of any kind and lens cutaway looks more complicated than I expected. Can you suggest a good book or website for beginners?

SOldBear,
Need help...I just picked up one of these lenses on the 'Bay for $20.52 knowing it would arrive with oily blades (see buyer's description below).
I've looked all over the place but can't find a repair manual or instructions for this type of project (I figured it was worth giving it a shot, given the price!). Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Herman
======================
VIVITAR 28-90 2.8/3.5 MACRO LENS FOR NIKON FILM CAMERA
COATINGS ARE EXCELLENT, ELEMENTS ARE EXCELLENT, NO SCRATCHES OR FUNGUS. 67mm HOYA UV FILTER ON BOARD.
APERTURE BLADES CLOSE / RETRACT WITH SLIGHT DELAY AND DISPLAY WHAT APPEARS TO BE APPARENT LUBRICANT. LENS WOULD BENEFIT BY CLEANING THEM.
(My italics)
INTERNAL ELEMENTS ARE OTHERWISE CLEAN. EXTERIOR EXHIBITS VERY LIGHT SIGNS OF USE, OTHERWISE A RATHER CLEAN LENS.
