No-dollar AEG motor Rx

Postby killbucket » Fri May 23, 2008 10:59 am

I meant to put this in my listing, or did it move? Too much coffee?!?!?

Is your MP acting MT? Is your trigger switch fried, again? Are your cells too hot to handle, even though your gun is "mostly stock"? Do your mates mock your ROF?
Is that what's getting you down? Is it, Bunkie?

Well, you probably have a well-used motor in that AEG, be it LPEG, MPEG, or HPEG (Hella Powerful Electric gun).
If the electrons can't get through the motor smoothly, everything heats up. Battery, wires, connectors, but most of all, your trigger switch.
Usually, you are rightly advised to go get that burly Systema or CA motor.

But say you have limited funds (the wife continues to blow "good money" on un-needed things like heating and house payments), or just want to know if there's any alternative.

Yes, there is. What we'll do here is just normal maintaining of the motor assembly. We won't be buying anything, unless you are unable to kype a cheap pencil. Actually, you just need the eraser. "A good artist doesn't need an eraser" I heard once. This person has no reason to complain that one's been pried from this cheap glittery pencil.

Use ONE DROP of oil/motor lube at each bushing end. Otherwise, follow along by looking at the pics here.

Slightly trim the end after each pass to expose a fresh cutting surface.

Use your preferred break-in, there are zillions of methods to look up...we haven't "cut the comm" or anything, you could just drop the motor back in and use it if you want.

Do this as needed, you might double the life you got from your last motor.


Questions?
