I have been struggling to get this whistle tender functional again. I had it pretty close, to the point of actually whistling, but it was also very chattery and slow to get moving fast enough to whistle. In trying to clean it further I've made things worse (see video). I've thoroughly cleaned the brushes and commutator, and the fan/motor spins easily enough by hand, but there is obviously something very wrong.
