[QUOTE="Tony S, post: 453674, member: 20864"] If the brushes are contaminated with oil the commutator will be black in colour. First off check there is no oil leaking in to the motor via the oil seal. To clean the commutator spin the shaft with a drill and hold a nylon rub stick against it. After a short while in use the commutator should have a chocolate brown colour (the patina) showing the motor is “happy” for the want of a better word. [/QUOTE]
