Help with JVC BR-S378U!, Eats tapes... Link To video in description.

[Rented_Sperry]

I understand these are a dying topic but I recently got one for free and would love to fix it. I have a bunch of new spare parts and the service manual. I just cant seem to figure out why its not working right. I have took great care in opening it and seeing what the problem is. The tape will load in fine and start on the reel, but then it just stops and the tape gets caught in it. I have experience with electronics and don't want to spend too much money on it, but i have not ever worked with vcr's so I am kinda new in this field.

Here is the link to the video

I notice at around 22 seconds into the video on the left side it starts spitting out extra tape. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
