Tearjerker Wah Crackle/Scratchiness

Hi!

My Tearjerker build sounds great but there is some crackling when playing the guitar and sweeping the wah. It doesn't seem to happen when sweeping the wah with the guitar muted. I used a brand new "Black Top" 200k pot from Smallbear and I don't think it's the classic old pot noise. I think someone mentioned it could be a leaky cap? Does that sound feasable? I own a multimeter but would need a bit of instruction going about diagnosing this.

Thank you so much!
