I usually also clean and lube both tension rollers, the left innertia roller and the counter roller (needs to be removed from inside). Both capstan shaft sintered bearings usually need a good lubing to (Mobil DTE Heavy medium). Also, I check the speed and set the tape tensions to ~55g.

Looks like I spelled fluoramics wrong the first time. I get a headache trying to spell that!

I don't get why you didn't lube the pinch rollers. My pinch rollers spin longer than yours. You may want to try TufOil. I heard aboutTufOil through Sota Turntables because they use it in their sintered turntable bearings. It's in the Guinness Book Of World Records as being the world's slickest lubricant. Great stuff. In the car it took away a lifter noise- twice, about 2 years apart!

The pinch rollers have self-lubricating sintred (bronze alloy) bearings, but I'll test your idea with Tufoil.

@@analogfeeling A self-lubricating sintered bearing is a metallic component with high porosity (20-25% in volume), impregnated in a lubricant oil. The oil contained in the porosity provides a constant lubrication between bearing and shaft, so the system does not need any additional external lubricant. Self-lubrication allows this type of sliding bearing to work under hydrodynamic conditions, resulting in a very low friction coefficient.

@@analogfeeling The stuff has gotten so expensive that I ended up buying a gallon so I'd never to buy it again. I see TufOil now has a half dozen products and a new website. I use the original TufOil Engine Oil Treatment. Use with conventional or synthetic motor oils in gas or diesel engines. Add 8 oz to a crankcase the FIRST time, after that add 4 oz at an oil change. New cars need to be driven 5000 miles to wear in and seat the rings first. Test results show TufOil produces the lowest known friction of any known lubricant. NIST determined that Tufoil has a surface friction so low that it makes Tufoil the most slippery substance known to man. Canada did the same thing and got the same results. TufOil has been around for years and most people don't know about it. The first time I used it in my 4-cylinder Ford Probe I felt it in my throttle! A slight touch on the throttle and the car seemed to literally lurch forward! No joke!! Typing tufoil.com takes you to their secure website, now called Flouramics.com. Best wishes bro.
