Re: heater fan sucks

[Warthodson@aol.com]

My heater blower ('64 BJ8) is not installed so I just did some bench testing. 
I connected the ground lead to the positive terminal & the power lead to the 
negative terminal. The fan rotated clockwise when looking into the 4" blower 
inlet & blew air out the 31/4" blower discharge.  When the leads were reversed 
the motor continued to rotate in a clockwise direction at the apparent same 
speed. I.E. The motor rotates the same direction regardless of polarity. I 
agree 
with those that have pointed out that it would be almost impossible to 
reverse the ducting to the blower. It would also be almost impossible to 
install the 
fan on the motor shaft backwards (reversed 180 degrees) because the fan is 
open on one side only to allow air to enter the fan wheel.
