Subject:Power Windows; Help!

Folks,

Power window problem on my 90 Westy.

Both power windows were moving up and down verrrrrry
slooooooowly. The passenger window moved just as slow
when activated with both the driver side switch as the
passenger side.

Two questions:

1)I removed the regulator from the passenger side,
cleaned and lubricated it, then reassembled
everything, but now the window won't go down all the
way. It goes up all the way, but the motor stops when
there is about a half inch of window exposed. Where
did I err?

2) After all the disassembly, cleaning and reassembly,
the window still moves up and down about as slow as it
did before. The regulator looks fine -- no cracks or
dirt. Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

I was thinking of disassembling and cleaning the
driver side assembly and regulator as well, but not if
it doesn't solve the problem. Any suggestions on why
both windows are moving so slowly in both directions?
TIA.

- Kevin
