turns too fast
I just got a new belt for this turntable I bought in the 70s but has been in retirement for 25 years and it turns a little too fast. Looks like there may be a bushing or something missing from the motor pulley. Anyone know where to find this part and/or what the problem is? Thanks.
Headshell/cartridge for Pioneer PL115D
Forgive my forgetfullness,but do the wires that connect the cartridge to the headshell,come with a new cartridge or are they part of the headshell. It's been much too long since I've utilized a turntable ? Thanks for any advice on this. I got the new belt on and now on to the next project.

I'm trying to resurrect an oldie but a goodie; does anyone have advice as to where I can get a belt for this old turntable. I appreciate your help in this manner, who knows maybe I'll be back in "Vinyl Heaven"; if I can find the belt I need.

Hiya,
Go to the Pioneer website and order one from their parts dept. They still stock the head, motor, and belts. :) I just ordered a belt for mine.
