Did a bunch of reading online about these silly vacuum motors. Mine are very similar to the ones used on the Model A Fords. So I was reading that stuff a lot. Everything pointed to worn out seals and "No amount of grease will make up for a bad seal".
Mine look like hard plastic and don't really look like they use a seal. I'd also read where there was some type of vacuum motors that used grease to seal... Maybe?
So I pulled one apart and tried it.
Works GREAT!
Thank you very very much!
