As subject line, I have one of these cassette decks sitting around with
a broken tooth on the spindle idler. (It's 20 years old so has probably
gone a bit brittle). This causes a jolt every revolution which upsets
the sound.

Any ideas where I'd be able to a. find out what the part number is, and
b. source one for a reasonable cost? (Our local repair shop closed down
many years ago sadly, as they would have happily loaned me the service
manual to locate the part number then sourced the part for me.)

Would love to get this deck fixed as it's a pretty decent 3-head with
direct drive capstan motor. Have got some historic recordings I'd like
to get archived to CD.

Thanks in advance.
