Turntable plays 33.5 Lps very slow


Hi.. guys all my 45 rpm Lps are playing fine , but as soon as I change the belt to suit the 33 1/2 rpm Lps, it slows down to almost half I think. Its deadly slow. It couldnt be the motor since the 45 rpm's are all fine... what could it be?

Is this something that just started recently? What table? Does the belt slip? Does the motor bog down? have you re-lubed the shaft? How old is the table? More details!

Get a new belt and don't ever put any kind of powder on it. Occasionally clean it, the pulley and the edge of the platter with isopropyl alcohol.

Let us know how it works out for you.
