Thank you both for the new advice.
I will try increasing the injector temperature and see what happens. Other than that I would like to keep the analytical conditions the same, as we look at a variety of analytes on this column (not just alkanes) and changing the method would be detrimental to other analyses.
Other than that, it sounds like the column is the only possible site of activity. Next time the instrument goes down for service I will trim the column head and replace all the ferrules. Hopefully that will help.
When you replace the ferrules be sure to cut 2-3 cm off the ends of the column after you have threaded then through the ferrule to get rid of any little shavings.

That's a good tip. Will do!
