Before looking for a new mechanic, it would be a good idea to check if that is the problem.  Is the disk spinning anyway? In this mechanism, the disc is driven by a flat belt. It is a nearly 40-year-old equipment, and the flat belt is partly rubber. This can also cause such errors.
If the head turns out to be at fault, look for full mechanics, not just head. Adjusting the head is very difficult without the right instruments.
@SVS: SD2IEC does not cause any bugs in this way, that is not the problem here, IMHO.
