I have now sorted the drive cord problem, the comment to myself is "stupid boy"
During the restoration I had removed the tuning gang and re-rubbered the mountings.
I had thought that the gang was opening fully due to the reassuring metallic click at each end, fully in and fully open, HOWEVER the stupid boy problem had come into the equation, one of the front screw mountings for the t/gang was the wrong screw, too long, at almost fully open the t/gang was hitting this screw.
Naturally it was almost totally obscured and the most difficult to get at but normality has now been restored
