I had exactly the same symptoms re stalling. My 94
GMC Jimmy also did this a year ago, same driver's
door that gets most used (Same motor except
gear-type regulator)
You are correct about the large rivets. You need
to punch out the center pin ( large nail might
help if no punch) , then drill it. The 1/4" rivets
are different in that respect from the 3/16"
I believe the motors are made to bind up after 10
years or so to keep NAPA, Checker, etc in
business. I paid $54 for new, not reman, at
Carquest for mine.
