Turntable plays 33.5 Lps very slow

Hi.. guys all my 45 rpm Lps are playing fine , but as soon as I change the belt to suit the 33 1/2 rpm Lps, it slows down to almost half I think. Its deadly slow. It couldnt be the motor since the 45 rpm's are all fine... what could it be?

If I was a betting man i'd say the belt needs to be replaced.
Running at 45rpm the larger pulley is used and takes up the slack.
Does the belt seem loose in the 33rpm position ?
