Featuring a mummified disk drive belt and creating a write-protection pin on the fly. This is the procedure I recommend for repairing and tuning up 3" drives. This drive comes from an Amstrad CPC 6128, but 3" floppy disk drives are also found in other computers like the Spectrum +3 or the Amstrad PCW and the same applies to all of them.

Amstrad CPC RPM measuring program:

On Spectrum +3 press BREAK on startup for firmware tests, which include measuring RPM.
