rebuilt the vac wiper motor on my 57 Fairlane, reinstalled, worked, now a short time later (just as I'm about to get the car inspected and registered), it seems like the motor is just not strong enough to operate the wipers.
I've greased the cable/pulley assemblies as much as possible; the assembly turns by hand ok, but when I install the motor, it just barely will move, and then, not completly thru one cycle without some help...
have I lost some vac pressure somehow? how much should I need? the line comes off the intake and goes straight to the wiper motor or can be plumbed thru the fuel pump... either way gets the same weak result... HELP
please don't tell me to get an ele motor after I have taken the time to buff and hand-bend steel lines to plumb this thing!!
thanks,Mark
