The diecast metal castings distort with age and the drive can become stiff in the body which may cause surging. Bore can be eased.
Somewhere in one of the Club technical infos is a guide to rebuilding but not for the heavy handed or faint hearted.
(My car used to sway above 55 mph...which led to being pulled over for speeding. The tail wind was of a ferocity for which Wellington is noted).
This sounds better than my idea...
