BRUSHES! I would comfortably venture to say it IS the carbon motor brushes. I definitely would not run it again (at all!) until these are changed lest you risk serious damage to the commutator!! I am guessing this is the one most recently sold on Ebay? If so, very nice machine! Rick | ||

Not necessarily a bad armature.
Jim, I have to ask with no insult intended, did you clean out the slots between the contacts on the commutator? If any of them were packed so as to cause a short and they were not cleaned out its possible the cleaning stick caused more imapacting of the offending conducting debris. Just a thought before condemning the armature. The windings can be individually checked for continuity or shorts. Dave, hoping your motor can be saved. | ||

North American International Auro Show at Cobo Hall, Detroit
I know what you mean about the crowds Pete. Jeez, some families will even bring children under 6 !!! and picture opportunities are patiently fought for. :-) I, of course, armed with video & still cameras, snatch up bagfuls of brochures. LOL But the Industry Preview Show tickets have become much too expensive at $75 each. This was always my favorite option. No annoying family crowds, just car guys and lots of space and all car doors open. It is what it is. Don't know what day we're meeting. Waiting on Jim to name the day and the Davy Roadtrip Machine will swing into action. Public Show Tickets Dates and Times Saturday, January 17 - Saturday, January 24, 2009 9 a.m. - 10 p.m. (no admittance after 9 p.m.) Sunday, January 25, 2009 9 a.m. - 7 p.m. (no admittance after 6 p.m.) Early access for handicapped individuals at 8 a.m. Enter at the Oakland Hall Entrance. Ticket Pricing Adult: $12 Senior Citizen (65 and older): $6 Children 7-12: $6 Children 6 and under free with their parent | ||
