Just acquired this really great little Minotla. The Minoltina AL-S. Great condition, but it's been sitting around for a while. The shutter was sticky, so I took the lense apart and oiled the leaves and some springs. It was cocking and firing perfectly, but then the advance level stopped cocking. It's as if the shutter button isn't firing, but once I had it apart, I could see that the appropriate levers were all moving with no problem when I depressed the button. On the bottom the little button that disengages the reels on the inside was pressed down (like I'm trying to rewind the film), and I'm sure that's why the advance lever isn't working. I just don't know how to correct this. Does anyone know how I can correct this? I was excited to clean this up and get some film through it. It feels like I'm just not understanding some basic thing about the camera.... Thank you
