This tutorial is the reason I became a member here, I was googling pioneer rt909 belts and the internet brought me here. I have a low hours deck that stopped about two hours into it's first use (this was in 1991 or 92) it has been sitting every since. I popped the top a month ago and of course the belt is snapped.
I am still in my research phase, I use the search function here at AK constantly and read every post about rtrs I can find. I decided to use my two problem TEAC decks as practice restorations before I jump into such a big job. I am in no hurry to complete any of these projects and sure don't want to destroy any thing by trying to fix it.
Since this thread has been popular again this week, I just wanted to comment, and mostly say thanks for the inspiration.
