Hi guys,
I cleaned the motor as advised....it was a pain to access in between the toother stator to remove the dried polish....
...the net result is the motor chirrups like a dawn chorus in springtime..
when turned by hand..not good!
I could not find how to separate the rotor from the stator as you see next to nothing in respect to the motor surfaces...
In the meantime I found a S/H motor on ebay from a spares company in China 129 euros delivered...cheap!......I ordered it quickly before it disappeared!
Received info from the forum; the motor needs a few drops of acetone to soften the thread lock in order to unscrew it.....so I will try that later to see if it's a worn out motor or whether there's still some polish powder gumming up the works and re-clean the surfaces.
So my masochistic battle for optical satisfaction continues
