Just wondering if anyone can shed any light on this issue.
Electronically it's working fine. It has a new tape & the heads & guides have been thoroughly cleaned with isopropyl alcohol.
The issue is that the tape periodically sticks to the the heads to the point where it stops moving. A brief tap on the tape with a pencil gets it going again. When it stops the capstan still turns.
