I burnt my slime rechargeable compressor, model 40028. Do you know if the dc motor is the same for all models. Or, will I have to look at the motor once I get it out.

I have since opened my slime air compressor, removed the motor and there are no markings on it for a model number or identifying features.

David, did you ever figure out the motor? Also, where would one buy a replacement motor?
