OK,OK,OK---
I'll try to find the paperwork. Selecting the motor was no biggie, though,
they had this nice book at the auto parts store, with pictures and
dimensions, etc...

O.K. Bob,
it's not nice to put that kind of information on the list without the
specifics (if you still have them).

Les-
I recently had my heater core out for leak repair, and found that
the blower motor to be heavily water damaged, so I went to my local Parts
guy who let me look through his books until a domestic replacement was found
that seemed about the same size. Made a little bracket to stabilize it and
used the same electrical hookup. Changed over the 4 blade fan ( 1/4" dia
shaft...) and it runs great. More air than ever before. Tip- check the
core for leaks very thoroughly before reinstallation.
Good luck

I have the heater out of my TR3B, and am sanding and repainting it. How can
I
tell if the fan motor functions? Is it okay to hook it up to a 12 volt
battery, or is there some sort of relay I need? If the fan won't work, can
it
be repaired, or is there a source for the electric motor?
Thanks in advance,
