Red face Should i buy a new motor?

Hi all,

I have been using 2 Fortec Star receivers (Classci NA and Platinum) and a HH90 motor for almost 2 months. When i first set up my sytem, this motor carried the Fortec Star 36" offset dish (FC90U), the dual ouput Fortec Star FSKU-2V LNBF and it worked just fine. About a month ago, i upgraded to a Invacom QPH-031 LNBF and added two 2-Way 22KHz switch. At that time i recognized that the motor speed was reduced a little bit and it was not accurate as before. Does anyone have any idea? Do you think the increasing of weight the motor has to carry now makes it burn out?

To move my dish to another satellite, some times i have to order the movement for 2 or 3 times. For example, the dish is on 97w and i want it to point at 110w, i perform the order to move but it is like it does not move at all, or it moves only a portion of the distance. So i have to move the dish back to 97w (or 101w...) then move it back to 110w again. I have to do this a couple of times to get it to the correct satellite!!! This problem happen more and more often recently!!!Any idea?What can i do?. If i have to buy another motor, which one will you guys recommend?Thank you
