Loose jump pack motor

Post by killer-elite »

Hey guys I bought a Puru Puru Pack from Japan and the motor inside is really loose to the point where if I shake the device I can hear it raddle around inside. I ended up opening it up and noticed the foam that keeps it in place has shrunk from age, Does anyone have any foam tape recommendations so that I can replace it?? I was thinking of using gorilla tape to put on top of the original foam but from experience that tape isn't the best for a long term solution as it has a tendency to peel away with time. Thanks.

Update I ended up opening up the Jump Pack and measured how wide and thick it is for a replacement. I found a 1/2" wide and 1/8 thick substitute on amazon for 8 bucks, Its a little bit wider then the original foam but figured I can always cut it to size.

A touch of hot glue would serve the same purpose.

That is a good idea, I do have a glue gun but I want to try to keep things as original as possible...
