I was debating sending this to wiperman for restoration, but this looks to be working pretty well. Is the speed shown in this video about how it should perform? Ritchie's wiper motor video I think the PO installed the wiper arms in the wrong position on the serrated rotor so I have to figure out how to take the wiper arms off. Removal is not blatently obvious. Observations on motor speed and how to remove the wiper arms are appreciated.

Once I got them in the right start and stop position they worked perfectly. Here are photos of the nagging little clips under the wiper arms. They were a pain and does not seem they do much, but maybe the photo will help someone understand them in the future. Wiper clip dis-assembled | | |
