Engine now runs fine.
The break-in method seemed to work OK, but the next morning, [today] the jerky movement was back.
I took Jonathan's advice, removed the plate, spread the wipers, and operation was fine after re-assembly. Note..one of the contact shoes that connect the wiper strips to the motor was off-center about 10 degrees, and I straightened this out.
Thanks one again.
