    I am in need of some help. I am looking for a spin motor or parts for a spin motor for the Foley Grinder Model 396. Foley doesn't manufacture parts for this grinder anymore and so I have resorted to other means to find parts. Any help, places to check would be very helpful. I have looked on ebay, and short of buying the entire grinder no luck. If anyone out there has these parts on the shelf or drawer and not using that grinder anymore please let me know I would appreciate it!!!

    Thanks

    Have you looked at starter / generator shops that rewind motors etc . They maybe be able to get it going again .

    I second this and if they cannot get it going again you could trust them to get you a new one to replace it. My issue with electric motors how difficult it is to find the right one to replace a bad one with. you really need to know your stuff before ordering one.
