Okay, pulled it all apart yesterday and put it all back together again, this time adjusting the cam screws on top of the worm block. I noticed one of the belts has some damage on the side, the kevlar is fraying a little at one spot...so I've ordered four new belts (two for now and two for the future), but I got them from a supplier in the US, exactly the same belt but instead of $30 each + $90 (USD) shipping they are $4 each plus $15 shipping (USD).

In the meantime, I've used the belt conditioning spray and tensioned the belts correctly. I purchased new motor mounting screws from a local supplier (stainless steel of course).

So lots of maintenance done, put it all back, balanced it nicely. I'll try an even balance first and if I'm having issues I'll try a small imbalance.

Now what I need to do is practice my cloud busting skills so that I can do another t-point run and look at my PEC. Hopefully with all the good advice and proper adjustments I'll get a good result.

Thanks Greg and Peter.
