Who sells a belt/tire kit is for a JVC hr-vp830u? I find a few belts that x-ref to it, but maybe not all of them, and no wheels or tires. Thanks. -- Reply in group, but if emailing add another zero, and remove the last word. |

At http://www.jvcservice.com/store/they sell remotes and cables and such. I didn't try calling them though. MCM has some belts, but I think a rubber idler wheel might be the problem. I thought there would be a kit with the whole set. -- Reply in group, but if emailing add another zero, and remove the last word. |

A long time ago there used to be an outfit called PRB - they carried all sorts of replacement belts and pulleys...but I think I remember seeing a post here that they were bought out by another company. Sorry, I can't remember the name. Also, at the risk of stating the obvious, have you tried rubber cleaner/reconditioner fluid? |

Never heard of it actually. Thanks. Google finds rubber stamp cleaner (maybe the same?) and a guy who recommends GoJo hand cleaner.

Don't waste time with 'rubber repairers'. if the rubber is on its way out, you're just putting off the inevitable. for a reliable fix replace the parts. Molgar have them, as do (i think) SEME and CHS |

That depends on what is wrong with the rubber. If it is glazed, you can clean it and continue to use it. If it is cracked or crazed, it needs replaced. I recently paid $7 for a quart of deglazer at a local printshop to clean the rollers on some printers, since I can't find new rubber. The best I ever used was 'Friend's Vita Drive'. I haven't seen any of it in about 30 years. -- http://improve-usenet.org/index.html Use any search engine other than Google till they stop polluting USENET with porn and junk commercial SPAM If you have broadband, your ISP may have a NNTP news server included in your account: http://www.usenettools.net/ISP.htm |

On more serious cases , on especially hard-to-find parts (like idler drive 1960s record players) putting the part in a lathe to rotate it 'evenly' as you 'sand' it is a good way. Anyway i digress - since we're talking belts here, I have found these to be far less likely to respond well over the long term to 'rejuvenation' - best to replace, they're generally far cheaper than idlers anyway -b |

Automotive brake fluid is a good rubber cleaner/conditioner. Wipe on, wait a day, rinse off excess. Aged rubber will oxidize and crack, the conditioner won't always bring it back. |
