When you say stock, do you mean one with a sealed endbell? Flush it out with motor spray very well, and let it dry. Add a drop of bearing oil to the bushings on either end of the can. You can also get a "comm stick" to clean up the comm a bit.

like mad scientist says flush it really well with motor spray and but some oil in it, let it dry a bit and plug it in not hooked up to the tranny or axle if it is a clod and run it a bit to dry the brushes off.
