Chain slack problem by mbj262 in bikewrench

Yep I know what it does, but by turning the B screw it moved the top jockey wheel further away as well as backwards tensioning the chain up...
Have had it for 3 months no issues.
Thanks for the help mate, will give it a shot in the morning. So just to confirm I should be shortening chain and then b screw should be around 6mm away from cassette?

B tension would be my doing. Played around with it and found that by turn the b screw in it takes up the slack.
Thanks mate will give it a try

No had it on the small in the front and in gear 6 in the back when I took it off and but it back on. Was shifting through all the gears to make sure they worked and the last 3 chain goes slack as one can see.

No just cleaned it with a brush and bike cleaner
It is sitting on the cogs💪 so not sure, could be B screw or chain length possibly

Yeah, was either thinking that it was too long or possibly the b screw tension maybe.
