filco zero: space bar is squeaky

I've just noticed that when I press the space bar from the left or right it squeaks. Have you noticed a similar problem with your filco?

You should check your stablizer bar and see if it's greased properly.

Funny, that's what my wife said last night.
I trolled Geekhack and all I got was an eponymous SPOS.

A few keys of mine squeaked for a couple of days when it was new.  Went away after that.
