    Hi Thanks for your replies. I've had a look at the user manual but it doesn't really help. Definitely turns faster when wired one way. I bought privately and the control was missing and I'm trying to use a generic control so the wire colours aren't necessarily the same. Also trying to wire in...

    Yes I'm thinking about that , but not totally convinced it is the shoes / drums otherwise the swapping should work , shouldn't it ? Also the shoes were new last year , and show no signs of bad contamination or burning I have had a load of trouble in the past with patent parts not fitting...

    Well the shoes don't seem greasy or contaminated and the there's no oil etc inside the drum. Could some subtle invisible contamination be seeping out of the shoes and making them slippy ? Seems unlike, I'm going to try degreasing the shoes , I'd usually use petrol but maybe I'll try a method...

    I have new last year original cylinders. the shoes may not be all the same brand and new last year. I may start swapping stuff around though not convinced it will help. also though not badly scored there are some shallow grooves on the drums and the shoes bed into their particular drum . Paul
