VCR won't play VHS tapes - stops after 16 seconds.
The tape deck will stop after a few seconds when it senses that the take-up spindle is not moving. Older units used a belt, yours probably has a clutch drivin spindle. There is even a belt like brake that can stop the take-up spindle from turning if the loading motor hasn't put the deck in the correct position. Stay in this area to fix it. Dale
Try to run a vhs cleaner thru it and it should help alot
