Default Lathe turning and parting off questions

My clausing 6900 lathe has barely any wear on the ways. And yet, when
I try to turn straight cylinders, I get something like 0.01"
difference along 4-5 inches. How come?

Second is that it chatters when I try to part off. Any suggestions
will be appreciated.
