Cleaning a good old Brushed Motor Dr. Speed 12T

How did people learn anything new before the days of YouTube ?

After watching How to Clean a brushed Motor (on YouTube) using a simple power drill, a   piece of sandpaper, and some “time”. I did my best to clean out our old but mighty Dr. Speed.

The opportunity also helped us determine that it is indeed a 12T motor.

Used a piece of sand paper and an electric drill to polish off the commutator: (see you tube videos for a full walk-through)

nice and shiny and it’s been working pretty great since !

Thanks for watching
