I'm a bit out of your neck of the woods, but try giving the heads a good clean first. And the capstan and idler. And the guides. Taking the top off, clean the deck and spray some servisol on the contacts, taking extra care not to get any on the rubber or moving parts.
As far as capacitors go, they are brown sweets in these and they do fail, so it is worth changing a few. Also resistors on the first stage tend to go high.
