And I think I'm gonna open this thing up and give it a good cleaning at least. It's never needed servicing, and has never been opened up in 20 years. it's about time lol

Your Electrohome is probably made by Mitsubishi. Since you said it has never been opened up before, you will need to order new belts and pinch roller, as well as idler tire.

The tire is extremely hard to change, but you will get an instruction manual to put it in.
