[DeTomaso] wiper motor

[JAYTCREC at aol.com]

the wiper motor failed to operate on a recent run.  yes, it was  raining on 
the car.
 
the cover under the fender was removed and the wiper motor was smacked  
sharply several times whereupon it obediently began working.
Though, it does seem to work in a fairly slow speed even set on high.   Would 
a new motor be faster???
So, should I replace it to make sure that it never misbehaves again or  is 
there a less expensive option? Rebuild or a cross reference to a less  expensive 
replacement?
Thank you in advance.
