				| I want to thank everyone who responded to my question. I replaced the reduction gear with what I hoped would be a serviceable unit and the problem went away. Thanks to everyone!

 oil  transfer sleeve are leaking too much oil to properly transfer oil from
 the nose  case to the prop shaft to work the propeller.
 
 The nose case can be removed and sent out for overhaul or  repair without
 removing the engine. I assume that the engine has about  1200-1400 hours on
 it.
 
 Central Cylinder is the best place to send it. There is a shop at Opa-Locka
 Florida

 The  problem is that the propeller, after the oil is good and warmed up,
 wants to  go to feather at any RPM less than 1500-1800. Oil pressure is good
 at the back  of the engine, have tried different governors, have changed
 props.
