IML: convertible top motor

[captden30@xxxxxxx]

my 54 windsor convertible was sitting for 25 years. i have removed and 
cleaned the power top motor. . i cannot get it to work. the commutator 
area was wet from brake fluid leaking out and i cleaned all that up, 
however the commutator is black where the brushes sit on it and i think 
this is preventing electrical contact. the question i have for anyone 
familiar with these is should i considerr this a normal condition or 
should this be cleaned and what is the proper way to clean the 
commutator? also  there is an O ring between the reservoir and pump. 
where can O rings be purchased?  thanks,  dennis     53 imperial,  54 
windsor convertible.
