I found a motor perfect for my project. The only issue is that its shaft is in metric for 3mm.

Meanwhile, the gears I have are meant to be for 1/8 inch shafts.

I forgot to mention my project is a small model which needs the motor to provide power to repeatedly push back against spring-loaded lever.

or shim with with 0.007 shim stock (or a bunch of aluminum foil )

or bore out the gear a little more and make a press fit sleeve
