    Am urgently trying to track down a new drive belt for my Sony Walkman WM-F63/73. It's the yellow Sport one with autoreverse. I can't give the measurement for the belt, as the old one seems to have melted on the motor, but I'd be happy to try any belts that people think might be right. I know there are international sellers, but that's looking like it'll take weeks to get here and I really need it this week. Does anyone know of any UK stockists or have spare ones for sale?

    Would be grateful for any help.

    Sony walkman WM-F63/73 is one of the worst Sony walkman when it comes to capacitors. If you search this model on Ebay you will find almost all of them not-working. I have several of them and none of them work (all need to be recapped), So be aware of this issue and don't just assume that by changing belt you will have a full working walkman.

    anyway this is the belt you need:
