Are you sure that that wasn't some former owner's hack?

It doesn't seem like a good idea to me.  I wouldn't think that the tape's 
thickness would have a desirable effect on the gap between field and 
armature.  But I'm not an engineer.

Hey, maybe you should make an offer on my pile of ETs.  You'd get some 
spare motors that way. And a spare ET, one with a Real Controller.  (I'm 
yanking your chain a bit.   :-)
