Id pay someone for the pictures and info and for their time. you can msg me at mastahscott@yahoo.c...

The problem is that a crystal head is far way more impedence matching wise, Therefore the circuit is made for crystal input not magnetic , if you want to use a magnetic input then just run the wires through a pre amp first to change the impedance , one of those little things on ebay called a phono p...

Not sure what you have but some motors have a start winding and some of those use a capacitor , so the start winding and or capacitor could be bad . In either case I can help you if you need it take care I got a new problem now with my motor. It has nothing to do with the speed now. It has to do wit...
