Ta@#$% Capstan motor bearings?

[Jeremy H]

Hi guys,

I've got a noisy capstan motor on an 85-16 b. I have not pulled it apart as yet, but for the moment I am assuming that it is dry and/or worn armature bearings in the motor

The parts manual shows the capstan motor as a complete assembly - but - has anyone had any experience with replacing the bearings in these motors?

As always, any light shone on this subject by anyone is appreciated!!

not much help, but :

mario at the broadcast workshop (noth melb) is great

zoran at ZM electronics (northcote) WAS the Ta@#$% service division
