Just a friendly fyi, the tape threading is incorrect, it should go over the reverse/stop bar sensor not under.

Sir, you are 100% correct, I didn't even catch that I done it wrong when I played it back before I posted the video lol.

Thanks for the video. Just started watching this, if the belt moves from side to side when the direction changes then the two spindles are not parallel to each other.

Really great job Explaining how to tear down and reassemble the drive mechanism. I have an old TEAC, silver model, that had exactly the same problem. I removed the Capstan bracket and my belt was one big blob of GOO wrapped around it. Successfully cleaned it up and put in a fresh belt which turned freely as you demonstrated. Plugged it in to see if i could play a tape and I found my reels would not turn the pressure rollers pushed up but the reels would not advance the tape. I did not remove the head assembly and grease. If those were stuck like yours were, would that keep the reels from turning and advancing the tape in play or record mode? Is there some other part that comes into play with that. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks for great video.

Great job I have four Teac Reel To Reels and just got a Teac X-3R from a friend that has been sitting for a long time. Cleaned all of the pots and switches with Deoxit and cleaned out the old belt gummy residue , Well to make a long story short I put in the new belt everything works fast forward and rewind but the main drive motor will turn on.do you have any idea what it could be. Thanks

Is the capstan motor rotating at all? If not, the first thing you will want to do is check the supply voltage at the speed control board. Very doubtful there is anything wrong with the motor, its probably missing its supply voltage, get the manual at hifiengine.com and that will help you track it back.

Thank you for an excellent video. Great to see your process as well as hear the tunes! Can you tell me what lubricants you used for this job? I have an X1000R I bought back in '84 and it is now having these same problems. Thanks

I bought a new TEAC X1000R. I found that the "reelsize" button is off/disabled.. What influence can it have on the audition? Or on the tension in the tape? I found that it sounds distorted. Do you give me any advice? Thank you very much !
