If you wind the tape by hand (with a pencil or screw driver etc.)is the tape easy to turn or move from one end to the other with out any binds? If not It may be wound unevenly, smacking it down on a flat surface a few times on each side will usually free it up. Hope this helps.
This is the weird thing ! The tape winds quite freely by hand - in fact I finally wound it all the way through to try and smooth it out - but still glitches up when played. In the end, my son found a portable player which did manage to pull it through sufficient to record off it the part I wanted.... but then, mysteriously, the player itself suddenly stopped giving out any sound while the tape rolled - and subsequently. If the two were connected I don't know --- but now the tape still jams on every other machine....
