Wheel commands in G9 Script

I am new to scrpting so this isuues may simply be a "beginner" problem.  I have not been able to get the commands wheel_left and wheel_right to work properly.  The wheel will move once or twice duing execution of the scipt.  In this case one click left.  Is this a timing issue?  Perhaps a bug in the wheel comand?  Can someone with a G9 or G7 reprodce the problem?

@title Wheel test
@param a Number of steps
@default a 2
@param b Step size
@default b 2

a=2
b=2
sleep 1000
print "Preparing..."
for n=1 to a
   wheel_right
next n
for n=1 to a*b
   shoot
   print "shot" n
   wheel_left
next n
end

Try to add "sleep 10" or "sleep 100" command after "wheel" commands, it helps on G7 (if I remember correctly).

thanks. 
I added sleep 20 after each wheel motion and sleep 200 after each sutter action.  Probably overkill, but it worked.
