Looking through the FAQ's on this part it seems there isnt any advice on the best way to clean the motor.

Do i just spray carb cleaner directly into onto it or do i use a cloth and carefully wipe around the end till its clean ?

The £11 one off ebay does not fit in tightly enough into the housing, the circumfrence is smaller the the old one. So im gooona try give the old one a good clean and hope it fixes it.

Iv just gave it a wipe over for now and see if that solves it.

As for the new ebay cheap one, i think the seal is too thin which could be the reason it has movement when its in the housing, ill check in a bit when i get back to it.

Well i hope i havent fooked it up, i cant remember that in any of the FAQ's, i think they need updating as one with video wont work.
