I noticed that the cassette door on my TRC-920 is very fast when it starts to open but quickly slows to molasses. I figured the gear oil thickened up over the years but then I ran across this post on another forum saying it was god-awful slow when he bought it new in '83 and even earned his box a nickname because of it.
I'm wondering if molasses doors could be refreshed with something like an OTC grease.
