I've owned a TC-366 since 1970, bought it new for $110 when I was in high school. It's having trouble maintaining speed. In looking at the pix on Vintage Texas -age I noticed my running capacitor is different from what he shows.
Here's a link to the back side of my tape deck.
It's labeled as 1.5uF and .5uF both at 250 W.V AC and is good physical shape.
I don't know replacing it will have any effect.
I bought another TC-366 off eBay for parts. Mechanically it's in great shape. I'm thinking of swapping the motors out.
Any thoughts on all this?
