Default Odd clock problem

I have an old (Victorian) pendulum spring wall clock. I finally got it to
keep good(ish) time by adjusting the pendulum length.
Recently it has taking to losing 11 minutes then it continues merrily on
its way not losing any more. It's always ~11 minutes (ie not 8 or 13). If I
reset it, it will sooner or later do the same thing.
Any ideas?
