I meant sort the backlash haha or best way to measure for backlash.

Cheers Dave, I'm leaning towards stripping everything and giving it a complete going over

Don't do that. Find the problem then do that. If not you'll always be guessing what the problem was.

Measuring back lash is easy just need a dial gauge and have the machine move away then return and should come back to same place every time. Search youtube you'll find loads of examples.
