Loaded with 30 year old electrolytic capacitors plus wear on the cylinder and pinch roller, and everything else, lots to check.

That particular chassis used a cylinder that would wear out, bottom of cylinder where the tape exits would get worn slick causing tape drag ("stiction"). Also the cylinder bearings would wear causing excess wobble in the upper cylinder as is spins.
