One other thing that concerned me is that the belt is not 100% on the motor timing gear. It is probably about 80% on, but that is enough to skew it a little.

The play in the RA motor system was better. I screwed the small (2mm) screw only a little to reduce the play, just a bit.
I'm now going to do a tonne of pretend Alignments and viewing of objects to see if I can reproduce any more ticking. Fingers crossed it doesn't show itself.... and if so, back it will go into the telescope shed.
It will be nice to get back into this Hobby....too long looking at the dust.
