Kenwood KX-W8020 Making Screeching Noise. Help!

Tape Trail

Reel to reel, cassette and other analogue tape formats.

I just purchased a Kenwood KX-W8020 off ebay. Nice shape except that it makes terrible screeching noise intermittenly. I thought it was caused by long storage time and putting it back to action can cure the problem. Ran it for a few hours and still the same. High speed dubbing is problematic: sometimes the speed slows down when the screeching noise picks up. The screeching noise is mechanic (it makes noise no matter connected to amplifier or not). What can I do? Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
