It's not had a new belt for years, it's been stored unused for 7
years. Could this be the problem? It's the last thing I can do
myself I think without calling in outside help. If I can find a belt
that is! Any other ideas chaps?
Playing a 33 at 45, but slowly?
Could be... there's a vibration as well, a sort of grindy hum. I thought
it was a 50 hertz hum from the power supply but you can actually feel the
vibration when you touch the deck. Perhaps the belt has shrunk making things
very tight. I will try and work out how to change the belt. I've seen them
on ebay for £6 or so.
Your right though, seeding up is very wierd.... you'd expect an old,
perished belt to slip and give loads of wow and flutter. Not a steady
speeding up. Off to order a new belt, i'll post with the results.
