Hi Dennis, I replaced mine about 4 years ago, it's still running 24/7 * 12 months a year.
I also replaced the NiMH battery at the same time, I used an Eneloop "C" size, don't think those are still available. They sell a "C" adapter for their AA battery or you can just buy a regular NiMH "C" or sub "C" cell At the time, I looked everywhere for higher quality motor but couldn't find it, so I bought a $2.00 motor. I believe this is what I used: https://www.homesciencetools.com/product/motor-electric-dc-0-5-6-volt/ I had to do some minor mods to it: If I remember right I wrapped a couple layers of tape around it to insure a tight fit in the housing as the diameter is slightly smaller than the Marinco original motor and I also used small zip ties to help secure the original impeller to the shaft. Beyond that, it's a simple matter of soldering the small capacitor and leads as per the original. I can check for you / take pictures when I go to my boat which should be tomorrow or Wednesday.
