That’s a good sign- what bolts did you remove though?

2 bottom bolts and one at the top....not the mounting bolts
when blowing air inside i could feel it moving out the other (somewhat of course)

The bolts that hold the field windings inside the motor? I guess. I’d still eliminate the motor with a quick test. PDS or series drive?

YOu think an ATV battery would be enough to try this test?

LukeL · 09-17-2019, 08:55 AM

Well I know a car battery is- or two of your 6V batteries. Not sure about a small battery.
