Rodney, information on a replacement motor sounds great.
I just took the engine apart and there is NO engine in it!
I have been buped!
Now I know why it doesn't run.
Now I need an engine to make it run.

if you decide to keep it....
what you NEED is the pair of worms.
there a number of motors that can be installed.
them worms are hard to find.
