Thanks for the input, everyone. All helpful and sound advice!

I agree with you, billw, that this motor is unlikely to be a good runner even if I get through a restoration. I won’t go deep into it. Funny thing is, the plate was very hard to move when it was on the motor. I thought I was doing the right thing taking it off to clean out the dried grease. Now I wish I could reapply it. Anyone have an extra tube of dried grease?
