Don,
There is only one moter (I assume you are talking about the 1985 GTS) and it drives a hydraulic pump located in the right rear trunk area. Most likely just needs fluid unless the motor actually is running slow (which is doubtful). Only certain fluids are ok to use but one of them is a auto transmission fluid for fords of the time frame.
If it is the motor itself, easy to change, hard to find the replacement motor.
