1973 Drivers Power window making Popping Noise

[ViaJoaquin@xxxxxxx]

When I R&Red my window motor and raising mechanism I made the mistake of 
washing the concentric spring in solvent. That removed all lube from the 
coil. The coil slips by itself as the window goes up and down, without lube 
any rust or dirt within it causes it to catch and jump (pop). Lube the spring 
entirely, using a small screwdriver to create a gap as you work your way 
around will help. I used Tri-Flow but grease would be better. That should 
take care of the popping.

 door on my 73 Imp (what a pain).  It had stopped
 working and I pulled the door panel off to see what
 had happened and it was only a bad connection with the
 switch.  I fixed that and figured I would take the
 motor out too and lube the internals.  I got it out
 and lubed the gears and put it back on.  It worked
 great for about 3-4 days and yesterday when I rolled
 the window back up in the fully closed position it
 acts like there is not a stop on it and tries to keep
 going up.  It makes a really loud popping noise.  Does
 anyone know what might be causing this?
