MTH E-8 Motors (BE-0000065) Found!

Call MTH and use ext 516 that used to be Midge's .She will return your call if not available.

She helped me several years back with a pair of motors for a proto 2.0 diesel that was from 2002.

Still have not used them yet !

Thanks very much.

There are frequently PS/3 motors that are the same with the exception of the different tach reader bracket.  I have replaced a couple of older units and had to replace the tach reader bracket with the PS/2 one, but the motor was identical.

GRJ--thanks.  For some reason, I cannot find a newer parts diagram for the E-8s since the PS2 releases.  I'll try MTH and hope they have a match since pulling the worm gear and flywheel is something I would prefer not to try.

BE-65 to BE 194 or 2230006 No tach reader

BE-66 us tach reader version to BE-172 or 195 and other.

Your motor is a 8mm by 22.5-24mm length worm.  30mm dia Flywheel.  Newer motors usually have 27mm.

I have 2 new MTH motors that will fit, both are set up for Tach Readers and have the 5mm by 27mm Flywheel.  Correct worm gear.  You can e-mail me if you need them.  I do believe many of the early motors are out of stock.  I used to keep the original part number motors in stock, but MTH ran out.  G

Thanks!  I'll email later today.

Many thanks to G and everyone else for all the help.  G shipped the motors quickly and I hope to install them soon.
