[Jukebox-list] Rockola Tempo Motor Speed

[Bill Signor]

Chad,

I'm afraid you are probaby right about disasembling the whole motor. Only 
thing is without a lot of experience if I do it I may not be able to get it 
back together. But I know that is the proper way to do it. I gotta think on 
this. Right now the speed sounds right.

Bill
