I was able to steal the idler tire from the old Hitachi Top Loader VCR I had tried to get going with no success (I'm just going to scrap it out beause its too far gone electronically to do anything with) and stuck it on this Panasonic (interestingly enough the Hitachi and this Panasonic used the same exact idler tire) and now this Panasonic works perfectly now including retracting the tape into the cassette like its supposed to now. Even though it isn't "Hi-Fi Stereo" it still has really good sound for what it is, in fact I had to turn down the volume on my TV by almost half of what I had it at previously (I had it at about 16 before and I had to turn it down to about 8 because the audio was so loud.)
