Yeah it was, I tried to oil it before starting it up but I think it really needed the oil in the shaft, which then locked up after a few uses. It was starting up really slow and then it would get up and go after a minute or two, so I think it had just sat a long time. I am glad it happened though, and made me get into it and see how it ticked, so now I know, and it is back together again and working.
The other one is still acting funny. Today the red light never turned on but it got the water to almost 110 degrees. I think the temperature control box is messed up. I wonder if I can find just that part somewhere - I'll have to look.
