Not sure, I see this issue starting on a record deck I have here, and that
parallel tracking device has never had any squirty stuff near it. Not
looking forward to having to get it taken apart, cleaned and relubricated,
but I think its just dust and time which has caused the degeneration.

This is a Pride Gogo traveller.The ride was very hard, It turned out
that the buggy was fitted with seat suspension (the instructions said
'where fitted', but it was completely seized up. One tube was meant to
slide inside another but it was rigidly stuck. It took a big hammer to
free it. The grease had solidified into a waxy substance. I cleaned it
all up and adjusted the suspension to 'softest'. The spring appears to
be a valve spring out of a big diesel or something similar; a very very
strong compression spring. The suspension now works but it is still
quite hard.

I wonder whether someone has been using a volatile lubricant like WD40
that
washed out the original lube and then evaporated?
