    The motor pinion drives a crown gear with an eccentric for the pump piston. The eccentric might have a trace of factory grease on it. I oiled everything

    that moves with "safe for plastics" light oil since I didn't find a
    different suggestion.

    Hi Jim. I have a issue with de DC engine. on the WP-360. I dont know how to buy. Can you please tell me the specs of the engine?

    My notes show the motor drew 1.2A without the reservoir, from a lab-type metered power supply. The battery is a 2.4V NiMH, 1300mAh. I charged it at 1 Amp from the current-limited lab supply until the batteries began to warm
    up, which indicates a full charge, at 3.6V on charge and 2.9V after disconnecting it.

    The supplied charger provided 0.112A at 2.88V which is the C/10 rate that nominally requires 14 hours for a complete charge and can be left on longer, though maybe not continuously. It isn't regulated, merely half wave
    rectified AC.
