IJ PoA replacement motor
« on: June 07, 2010, 03:20:49 PM »
Hey All,
Not sure if this has been posted already or not.
I needed to replace the PoA motor on an IJ I'm fixing up. Clay mentions a Radio shack replacement of his site. Well I did some searching and found that DSE sells a similar motor here in Australia. Long story short, this motor works well as a replacement, the only problems are that the shaft is too long, which can easily be trimmed back (I cut mine with the side cutters) and the shaft is also a little thin (I wrapped some plumbers tape around it). For $5 plus postage I have found this to be a cheap and good replacement motor. It does move slightly faster than the original motor but I find this to be a good thing. If you wanted to slow down the motor you could always put a resistor in line to lower the voltage to the motor.

Hope someone finds this helpful. <..>
Regards,
Dan
