Hi all the electronerds
Well it starts with "yer I can do that with Platinum but I need a Reel to reel recorder 'cause mines broke' (OLD Tanberger that I should have chucked years ago ... but old gear ... old man  ya know how it is). So cutting a long one, an' 'cause it's family ... I end up buying a SONY TC366 off Ebay that needs work (and how!) So I'm left with the problem of the motor which is fine other than ( although noting this is Cakewalk an not a how to do site)  a capacitor which seems to have two values of 1.5mF and 0.5mF connected, which is not providing a kick up the arse and run ya bugger job!  I ask if anyone knows if I can get this thing sorted and if nothing else thanks for reading to this bit ! 

I don't have the capacity to answer that.

... and apparently no resistance either.
 

Be it ever so humble, there's no place like Ohm! 

Maybe try the Hardware forum?

Probably doesn't help you but I purchased a pretty nice used Pioneer turntable on ebay that is from 1980 and I use it to listen to my Vinyl records. It sounds good and has a very nice needle and cartridge. 
 
 
Mine works though. 
 
Well this probably doesn't help you at all. 
 
I dont know what I am doing anymore
