:( i installed the new motor.. it ran backwards... changed the directional wires as in the instruction sheet.. still ran backwards.... something fishy about that... any ideas as to what to do next... my father-in-law taught a/c&r at a community college... he said that something could be mis-wire...

have the snail shell out.. all turns well at 100 rpm or so.. only at 1000 rpm does it present a problem... and yes i will be ordering the generic motor an cap... i will make my order monday.. thanks..

When the fan comes on, it makes a loud noise like tires squealing... motor turns easy by hand... motor has oil on rear (side away from shaft)... there are no other signs of oil in furnace unit... I'm thinking a bearing... but it turns freely and makes no noise when turned by hand... oh yea, it does ...
