Date = April 20.
Right, having sorted out a few domestic issues (for the time being, at least) which arose without warning, I've re-visited this Sony Betamax machine.
Removed the pendulum, removed feed and take-up spool hubs & dismantled the spool drive motor ass'y. in order to examine all of these items for signs of wear, debris / dirt / contamination. I could not find anything that I was unhappy about (based on my basic knowledge of these machines).
Another search of the 'Net and the aforementioned Site failed to indicate further likely areas of investigation.
