Have you tried calling Dustin at Whipple ??? Last time I checked they had a few rebuilt units in stock, or they can rebuild yours.

The motor locked up while running, then after looking at things I took off the belt and you could easily tell the problum was in the blower. I pulled the carb and it looked bad, rotors all scored up. Apon dissassembly it looked like the rear bearings went bad. since they are sealed bearings, then the rotors started rubbing and the front bearings and seal became loose and sucked the oil out of the front housing then locked up. We came to this conclusion because the gears in the front looked ok and not run dry. Its just a guess.
