I just received the Sony TC-248D quad 8-track player that I won on eBay. As the seller indicated, the player needs a new belt. What I wasn't prepared for is the fact that the original belt had decomposed into a tar-like substance. I was able to pick most of the belt away from the flywheels with my fingers, but there is a gummy, sticky residue that was left behind. What is the best thing for cleaning this so I can get down to the bare metal again before I put on a new belt?
