Well last weekend I got around to the electrical on my 100. I looked under the dash for the wiper motor and it was gone. Yesterday I went to the fellow I bought the car from and found the motor sitting on the wall in his garage. So last night I pulled it apart and freed up the armature. Then I took the drive bears apart. The grease was like semihard cheese. So I took the gears out gently. Unfortunately not gentle enough 'cause the the one with the needle bearings flew out of my made and landed on the floor about 4 ft away. I looked inside the housing and found that 3 needle bearings where missing. I found 1 stuck in the grease of the housing, 1 on the floor near the landing spot of the gears, and I couldn't find the 3rd one. So this morning at 5 AM I went out to the garage and went to the landing spot and looked around and there it was under some stuff. I then cleaned all parts and now have to reassemble the needle bearings. I have a good idea as to how to get them all back in place but just thought I'd share my adventure and see if anyone had a trick up their sleeve.
