Default Amperage for motor for Kenmore 1120

Hi again!

I happened to be given a Kenmore 1120 with a bad motor by a lady I was buying a vintage Japanese machine from. She gave it to me when she found out that I am teaching myself sewing machine repair.

The machine has a 1.2 amp motor but I can't seem to locate a replacement motor for it. I have tried internet searches for "1.2 amp universal sewing machine motor" but I can't find anything. Can I use a motor with higher or lower amperage?

I have read that the old Kenmore machines are a beast! This machine is really heavy so I think that it is all metal.
