Super 8 inconsistent frame rate

Hi there, 

 

i just borrowed a friends super 8 camera to see if it was in working condition. After putting in new batteries it seems to work perfect. But once I put in a cartridge the camera can’t seem to get up to the proper frame rates. The white dot on the side to indicate advancement seems spins inconsistently. It will get up to speed for like 2 seconds but then drop down and almost stop. 

I doubt it can be fixed but I just wanna know a diagnosis.  

 

The camera is a canon 518 sv
