Absolutely. I run one w/out the fan in my B4. But note that the newest ones don't have the removable fan case, so you will have to "dremel" the fan off. The nice thing though, is that the new design...

The newer MMP also has a slightly lower profile. The case at the caps, and the heatsink... are maybe 1/8" shorter. And the fan/case is one piece now, so it's not removable without dremel surgery....

Apparently the motor was smoked. It's too late now, no matter how you gear it. So you can get mad and throw a fit, but you are expecting a damaged motor to work correctly... not possible. It's like...

You won't find it at a retail type store... have to find a commercial supplier. I can't help you find one, but for our track in Des Moines, we had to go about 2 hours north to another town to find it.
