    Type VII replacement motor

    What size would the replacement motor be for a type VII S/D. I see Caswell has motors but I need to know what one goes in the type VII S/D.

    6-7.4 volt, 380 can motor.

    Why?

      replace

      I thought I'd replace the motor that sometimes hangs up. It didn't do it today but normally does. Maybe the new drive shaft couplers are helping that problem.

        Understood. But you will have a hell of a time pulling the motor extension shaft if you do swap out a motor. Those things are press-fit tight.

          hmmm

          Well in that case maybe I can just give it a bump when it needs it. If it gets worse Maybe I can mail it to you for an overhaul. I think I was running around my friends pool and a motor was hung up for a while. Battery powered stuff doesn't like being hung up. They get ugly. I may have cooked it. Burnt something. It does seem to be getting better the more I run it. Doesn't hang up as often. I'll tough it out for a while.

          It really runs super on one screw.
