Default Motor wicks?

Dear Group,

Could someone educate me on motor wicks; exactly how to inspect them, what to look for, how to replace them, and with what to replace them?

I actually did not know what a motor wick was until a day or so ago when I saw them mentioned on another group. I presume they are universal-to-all-if-not-most-sewing-machines thing (except Steve's trundle sowing machiens* of course), so I thought this would be a good forum on which to have a discussion.

I have seven** machines, 50-plus years old, and I feel as though inspecting these old wicks may well be wise.

Thanks in advance!
