It fixed the problem and made a dud motor run like new. No parts involved, and no dead spots after.

But, to do it, you need to remove the pinion gear, and pry open the motor casing tabs that lock onto the rear end bell (the hard part to do). It took me about an hour to it last time.
well thanks for the info,,,it also pays to have friends with spare parts and i already have another eg700 dropped in. the stock ics turbo 2000 lasted a year and a couple months which from my understanding is a milestone based on the turbo 2000,s rep, this one was a used eg700 that lasted a year so i have no complaints.
