Hi, My 1953 super C will not turn over. Battery load tester shows battery to be good. I dismounted the starter and hooked jumper cables from battery. When I push the starter button the armature turns but takes two or three seconds to get up speed and even then I don"t think it has much torque/strength. All four brushes have about 1/4" before metal tab would hit commutator and springs are keeping brushes against commutator. Commutator looks a little dirty with build up between each bar. Any recommendations for cleaning and if not successful should I buy a rebuilt one and where. Thank you for any comments! ToddH
