Leonard Caillouet:
You are EXACTLY CORRECT with your reply to Udo Piechottka...... thanks for
verifying what we both already knew.
I have seen many worn belts that ride up or down on the motor pulley and end
up riding on the LARGER DIAMETER edge, thus producing a much faster platter
speed.... that is why I made the belt the FIRST and most simple culprit to
check.

That won't explain why the turntable runs faster. In case of a stretched
or worn
belt the speed would decrease when the belt slips.

I often found noisy speed pots (possiply reference trims inside) causing
this
effect.

Of course it would explain it. A belt that is stretched can ride onto the
larger part of the spindle causing this effect. If adjustments were the
solution, he would not have experienced such dramatic changes in speed.

I am not familiar with the model, but if it is belt driven it likely needs
a
belt and the spindle cleaned. If it is direct drive, there is likely a
defect that needs repair.
