Seedy Al Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I run whatever is going. Which is usually the cheapest. Im never going anywhere fast these days anyway because going fast is gay. I just wanna get drunk and go camping. And somewhere in the middle do more burnouts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igor Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 For what it's worth 12" Starlet wheels fit BMC ADO16s. Width and pcd both match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajg193 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 How can I reverse the auto starting direction of operation on this motor? Has three wires coming out of it, capacitor across two of them. I wired it in to an AC cable / put a ground wire onto the housing for safety and it starts and runs fine, but goes clockwise. When disconnecting the cap I can flick it to start it in the other direction and it then runs fine. Opening it up, all of the winding wires are the same diameter, no switch inside to disconnect any starting winding so I'm fairly confident it is a permanent-split capacitor motor. Resistances between the three wires are 50, 100, 150 ohm. EDIT: Other side of the connector has two orange wires and a blue wire, the capacitor goes between the two orange wires, then one of the orange wires goes to outside world AC, as does the blue wire.

RUNAMUCK Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Retard efi question, On a motor with that new fangled electronic fuel injection, the fuel hose which attaches to the vacuum referenced diaphragm is the return line yeah? (That's probably the fuel reg actually. no?) I found a flowchart to fix my hopefully nats whip that even a simpleton like me can follow.

Motor now goes backwards. Not sure how much the gearbox will like being run backwards as the gears are helically cut / and bearings are probably only on one side knowing cheap old motors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 From my limited knowledge of AC systems as far as I'm aware if you reverse the polarity of the starting pulse(capacitor) the motor will spin in reverse. Most ac motors will spin in either direction if you remove the capacitor and give it a helping hand to get spinning. Have to do that with the ancient grinder at mums.

Seedy Al Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Calling Toyota barrys. Would I be correct in assuming that an Nz new Toyota Cressida Gx60 would have an E series diff head? Unfortunately being nz new the build plate is bloody useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsnz123 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Most likely. IRS cressidas either got the E or G diff depending on engine spec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Well its not irs. Plus im pretty sure most irs diffs from cressidas are F series. But thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
