Someone suggested to move this into this forum area.

I put a couple of drops of thin oil in the capstan of my MS16. After a few seconds when the oil was sucked in, it started doing a cracking noise like for 30 minutes. I left it on and about an hour after the noise was gone. Is this normal ? what was that sound ? anyone knows ? was it ok to oil it at all ? it wasn't broken or making any noises before, i wonder if that was a mistake, one of the cases of trying to fix something that wasnt broken.../ Well now there is no noise, but for a minute i was thinking it was the end of my MS16. any experiences with those motors ?

thanks
