Re: Wurlitzer 3600 Plays Slow

Ron, It wouldn't suprise me if the motor is not original, or possibly the oiling tube "disappeared" over the years. As an example, there is a mechanical solenoid operated credit accumulator, rather than the 555 BO/AC; evidence of non-original parts. The motor mounts I used are the ones fro...

Re: Wurlitzer 3600 Plays Slow

Thanks again. Over the weekend, I added some 20 weight (3 in 1 Motor Oil) to the top felt. I can't get oil on the bottom without some way of "squirting" the oil up. Speed noticeably improved; by sound it's close. I checked with a strobe disk I printed out, usint the flourescent tubes in th...

Wurlitzer 3600 Plays Slow

My Wurlitzer 3600 plays records a bit slow. If I put slight pressure with my fingernail on the motor sleeve, the record will speed up to a normal speed. So far, I've done the following: replaced the 4 motor mounts, replaced the 2 drive belts, cleaned the motor sleeve with isopropyl alcohol, rubber r...
