Sure to be jockey wheel problem, due to hardening of the rubber. Mount the wheel onto a threaded screw which will fit the hole in the wheel snugly. Put a nut either side and tighten. Clamp the end of the screw into the chuck of a slow speed electric drill, and rotate lightly on a flat piece of medium grade sandpaper. Not for too long, though, you want to avoid taking too much rubber off, or there will be problems with it contacting the motor pulley.
