    I'm driving from Boston to Key Largo on 8/24 - and back

    I've made the trip several times. Sometimes I'll cut off in Emporia VA and take Rt 58 to the bay bridge tunnel and take Rt 13 up to the Delaware Memorial Bridge. May take a little longer but you usually don't have to deal with much traffic.

    I've had some good luck using a spoon to pry them off, using a cloth or a piece of cardboard to protect the faceplate.

    [Teac X1000R Restoration] removing face plate

    The outer knob should just pull off. I sometimes use a spoon (carefully) as a pry bar to help get them off.

    Taking old garbage Tape off of a 7" Reel:

    I always transfer the tape to reel that has a full slit in it (Teac plastic reels do) and then slice the tape with a razor blade knife. I use a putty knife to protect the other side of the reel so as not to mark it up. Just another idea.

    Akai Gx747 Reel Motor Lubrication Advice Needed

    Yes, if I remember correctly. You just need to take the take up reel side panel off. That gives you easy access to it.
