Hi all thanks for the info.
I did use a permanent marker on the shiny metal parts and pointed laser at that so that was not the problem.
I will put a few dabs of oil on the rails and see thanks.
Ok update I removed some of the grease from the trapezoidal spindles it is thick stuff even more so in this weather.
I then added some 3 in 1 oil just to loosen things up a little and now I have had NO stalls,stops,jams etc so maybe the grease was way to thick in this weather I will look at the details on where I got it to see if its recommended to be used in 2c conditions.
Thanks
Gerry

Grease and very cold temperature... bad mix. Glad it worked for you.
