Motor is intermittent and sounding like serious arcing.

The used to do a service call where various bits and bobs would get
replaced.

needs brushes most likely. they're cheap. There might also be
commutator damage needing work - not too hard to do, but not as
trivial as new brushes.

Not observed the motor running - It stopped working - then it ran - but
with a burping type sound as I guess is was sparking badly.

Depends how long it has been run that way. If its only for a little while
then the damage is probably minor, but if its been doing it for a while
replace the whole motor, same goes for most machines.
They don't build motors like they used to with almost solid brass commutator
sections.

grin.

just look at brush & commutator faces. They should be mostly smooth. You may need to file the commutator if it's a mess.
