Willie's thought about the thread indicator gear having loosened is worth checking out.
I did that as my first attempt at diagnosis. I think I'm going to take it off of the lathe and dismantle it and see if I can see anything the doesn't look right. I did watch it go around to see that it turned smoothly and checked all of the gear teeth to make sure none where chipped.
