Henry,
I have gotten the belt but first wanted to make sure I need no electronics straightened out.
Also as I stated above, there was purely mechanical damage (warp in the back plate) which I seem to have tackled, the assembly will show how successfully, but this pushed the pins of one of the LDOs against the heatsing. The heatsink is anodized. Were it not, this unit would be sold to me for $20.
Due to the the escaped smoke.
So, the unit apart and the boards off, and the caps eing 1987 production, I just had to make sure they are good.
Now that I do know that, I could assemble things back, put the new belt in place, Qtip the laser, grease the places that show they were greased.....and then pray and try it out.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
