So just a few snaps of removing the known possible cause of a motor short, this factory spacer washer that can short the sensor PCB for Odyssey.

FYI, for those just learning about this- as seen before here https://ogrforum.com/topic/so-...k-you-ve-seen-it-all
Yep, that one was a surprise for me, and certainly a head scratcher. 
Is that the puller from Paul Edwards Vern?……I modified one of his pullers for this type of work, and for pulling modern manufactured steam locomotive wheels, …..

Yep, I bought a couple of his tools and pullers. Some of the best tools I own. Nice mod on custom jaws.

Thanks, …I’ve been working with those fellas to help them market such an adapter set of jaws, …..I made these, and case hardened them in hopes of longevity …….so far so good, ….lord knows I’ve pulled dozens of drivers with them already ….

I just purchased a M1000 from a Forum member.
Will arrive on Tuesday.
It has not been run.
Should I get the motor fixed before I put it on the track and apply power?

Well, you should at least look at the motor with the tach reader. If it has that big washer, do NOT power it up before getting that washer out of there!
Thank you. I will try opening it up...(hopefully not damaging anything) and see if the washer is present.
I hope not.
