This was having some troubles running smoothly so against my better judgement, I disassembled it. What I found was a loose, toothed belt. The motor runs fine, I just need a new belt. Wish me luck finding a belt and reassembling this.
I was thinkin the same thing. I took some measurement's.

In case I lose one again, I'm going to try to find some brass pipe to match this.
