Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. There is no pad on the pointer and I don’t think there ever was. The pointer is actually nowhere near the dial glass when the chassis is back in its case if you look at the pics. It didn’t however play up like this til I caught the original cord with my soldering iron. The original cord looks to be nylon over cotton?
There is just a hollow metal tube where the cord goes over the screw (see pic), doesn’t look like there ever was a plastic guide.
I did order some mono filament fishing line but after it arrived and I had a look at it I decided not to use it..
The good news is that I have tried another piece of the same cord and its going along fine now.
