Not much of a title,but how do you guys feel about running motors that have been broken in,then not used for several weeks? Any loss of performance,or not a problem?

when i do this i spin them on my 30 at 2 volts and dip them in parts cleaner or spray them out with motor cleaner before putting them in the car

Danny,
Depends on the humidity. I've seen the copper on the comm oxidize/tarnish enough to hinder performance.

I check the amp draw on my turbo and give it a good spray. If you are still getting the numbers you want, throw it in.
