Default Re: Trying to revive a Goodmans One Ten receiver

Yup, it's a classy looking piece of kit for sure!
But speaking about the tuning scale, this has an issue I hope you can assist me to sort out.
The tuning will only move to the right and not easily. Not at all to the left. Knob turns but not the scale indicator. Seems as if the variable capacitor gets stuck.
I thought this was caused by working in a chilled out outhouse and carefully applying heat with a hairdryer on the variable capacitor made it work.
Thought it would sort itself out coming into a warm house but problem persists.
The capacitors mount is a bit crooked, don't know if this is the cause and can be fixed.
Or is this old lubrication somewhere jamming moving parts?
