I have a 1988 Breckwell p-24 fs. Everything has been working fine. Well, originally the auger was jammed, seized to the bushing on the end of the auger. So, I pulled the auger, and cleaned the end of the shaft up. Its been working ok for the last month or so. Now, randomly, the auger will jam up. I have a feeling the bushing at the end of the auger needs cleaned up, or replaced. I took motor apart, cleaned it up, lubed the gear box up. It seems to have the power to work ok. My question is. Should I upgrade to a more powerful motor? If so, which one? How do I replace the upper bushing? Looking at it, it looks like its steel? I would imagine brass would be better. I don't know how to remove it. There are no threads that I can tell. Is it just press fitted in? Do i need to fab up a puller of some sorts? I included a photo of what it looks like out. Thanks for any info.
