Europa-List: OR5 slot query

OK, so Ive spent the day fiddling with the flap pushrod adjusting its length and
the angle of the actuator plate FL21, and adding a small stop on one side as
advised by Bud Yerly, and have finished on the happy note that the outriggers
are now staying up much better when the flaps are retracted and that both flaps
are travelling 26.7 degrees from retracted positions that match the wing root
template well.

However, the bolt that slides in OR5 is still not behaving as the manual would
like. Starboard side, the bolt is about half-way along the slot in OR5 when the
flaps are down, but port side the bolt has barely moved from the forward end
of the slot with the flaps fully down.

The retracted positions of the flaps appear to be the same; they have the same
travel. What can I do to make the bolt move further along the slot in the port
OR5?

in friendship
