I have an old Tri-ang motor that I want to get running. It runs slowly in one direction but not in the other. Im assuming it just needs oil or a cleaning. Has anyone ever seen one like this, and can tell me where to oil it and what to clean???

Hey Ken. Thanx. I'll take it apart later and see what I can oil. I figure it mostly just needs to be cleaned somewhere, as it runs slowly in one direction but not the other. I do have the shell, but I'm sending it to Gareth, as its a little beat up, and he has some use for it...
