• My turntable has started to play up. Pitch stability is gone and it takes ages to get up to speed, where it used to be half a revolution. What a great time learn to how service an ancient idler drive tt. (Lenco L75). If it's anything like my bike mechanic skills it will take me a few years and quite a few broken parts to get to a barely acceptable level.

  • Idler probably needs a clean and motor might need lubing.

    They are great turntables (when replinthed especially) and pretty easy to work on. Lencoheaven if you haven't already found it has plenty of useful guides.

  • Thanks! I ended up bending the idler arm slightly and rotating the rubber grommet on the base of the idler arm. Now running much better!
