Dave,I would check the main flat drive belt.
if it is slipping,it can fool the auto stop mechanism into thinking there is a tape playing and it is at the end so it kicks in the auto stop.
I've had my Sony CFS-77 and CFS-99 do that also.
I installed new all belts and it seems to have cleared it up.
Hope this helps.

is the cfs88 a new score DAVE, i remember you had the 77 but don,t recall seeing the 88.
i had one and traded for the tec super j, really nice unusual box, love the vu,s and the way it all folds together
