Thanks Birt, I'm actually one of your subscribers :) , but in this case I watch
youtube mostly on my smart tv, and it cuts the titles of the videos after 6 or
7 words, actually I think the iphone app does that too ; and so because of the
title I did not realize this particular video was about ccr 82 - I must have
missed it. I'll have a look. I think my belts were initially too tight when I
put them in, but now - like only 1 year later - they are way too loose. Which
means those cheap "assorted belts" out of Amazon are a heap of cr$$ - which
probably isn't a surprise to anyone. It's not an easy device to disassemble
iirc, so I'd rather do it once and for all now, with the super proper belts. Le

In the Links section of the description are links to the company who makes the
belts and the distributor I bought them from. A very unscientific specification
is ‘just tight enough to do the job’. Since very little power is being
transmitted little tension is needed. Belts should not be tight. This puts too
much tension on the pulleys and wears things out prematurely. > > The quality
of the belt is important too. I have shied away from big sets of random belts
to buying belts of known length and quality. That way they should last for the
rest of my lifetime at least. > > > > > > > > While I got this deck
