First step is to unload the motor and see if it turns a lot quicker.

Disconnect the arm on the motor shaft to see how it performs with no load.

If it is still sluggish then the brushes or motor bearings need attention,

If it speeds up appreciably then the linkage needs attention.

Threads deal with this, it can be a lengthy job but as already mentioned, you will be impressed once the job is done;)

I had problems with slow wiper blades until they stopped working. A new motor worked for a while but when I restored the car I found that the bushings under the wiper arms were binding from dirt. I cleaned them and the wipers are perfect. Easy to check and fix. I replaced the rubber boots on the wipers to prevent this in the future
