Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?

I have just acquired a 32 year old JVC/Victor TT-101 DD turntable after having its lesser brother, the TT-81 for the last year.
TT-101
This is one of the great DD designs made at a time when the giant Japanese electronics companies like Technics, Denon, JVC/Victor and Pioneer could pour millions of dollars into 'flagship' models to 'enhance' their lower range models which often sold in the millions.
Because of their complexity however.......if they malfunction.....parts are 'unobtanium'....and they often cannot be repaired.

It is also clear that in many cases the original post is completely incorrect. Peter, by all means share your experience of how to fix these turntables since that is the aim of a thread like this. Without the sharing of the information, all you are doing on this thread is drumming-up business and touting your restorations.

You have established that you can restore these turntables. Either share your techniques or take the marketing spam to a PBN marketing thread.

Theophile,

You do note that all, but the first the above posts with links to the Systems page are answers to questions and requests from other contributors to this thread ?

Good Listening

Questions that could easily be answered on a tailor-made PBN turntable thread.

I don't want to report Peter. I just want to see the thread revert to the topic. The on-going advertising of PBN turntable restorations, with little or no insight as to the specifics of the work done, can be continued elsewhere.
It would be relevant to this thread if the faults found and the remedies applied to the eventual PBN turntables was being discussed, but they are not.
