[Healeys] FW: Wiper Problems BJ7

My dad rebuilt the wiper motor in our BN2.  There was a lot of caked-dry 
grease inside which probably impeded operation.  I think you need to 
take your motor apart and at least clean it out good and regrease it 
(white/lithium is appropriate).  Same with the flex shaft to the pivots.
