Wanted : Hawthorne n Shebley motor

Post by columbia1spring »

I have a Busy Bee front mount that needs a motor. I believe it's an early h&s motor and I assume all these motors are the same, I could be 100% wrong!! I feel it's cost effective to buy another motor then having mine repaired.. The picture is my machine and motor

What's wrong with your motor? Don't assume it's cheaper to not repair yours.

I have noticed that often, the spindle drive gear is often bad on this model. I am interested in your response to Jerry Van's question.

I also have one that When being played it had a heavy and loud clicking sound then it jambed. I can't wind it and I don't want to force it. From what I can see, nothing appears cracked causing an alignment issue.
