It wasn’t luck Jules. It was using my ears, my brain and taking prompt action; a deliberate strategy for a high standard of maintenance.

Absolutely Julian; you didn’t lose much money and you have learnt more about how your car works. That is something of which to be proud. It doesn’t take any skill to throw something away and pay for a new one! Simon

I hope you use your ears and brain to detect the damage the overdue a change engine oil does to the main bearings too Brian |

You look after the oil and the bearings look after themselves, you do not however change oil on a mileage basis alone, you change it annually. Time and time again you have proven yourself to be failing to maintain your own car correctly, so perhaps you should change your avatar title to "doesn't do things by halves, does things by thirds instead" There was a considerable amount of time and effort put into the research carried out by Jules into sourcing a reliable replacement for the quite frankly rubbish three speed fan. This is called ongoing research and development, something you fail to grasp at any level it would appear Most owners do not wish to spend a day pulling their car apart, dismantling the motor, then after paying over £20 for a set of carbon brushes, find the commutator is badly worn then have to put it all back together, only to repeat the job later. What you fail to see through your blinkered perspective is simple, if you have you car repaired by a third party, that third party must be able to warrant the job they carry out to be reliable. This normally precludes bodging a clapped out old motor together with new components in the hope that it will "be okay" Of course that doesn't apply to you though does it? with your superior mechanical aptitude, and of course your unquestionably magnificent clairvoyant abilities Brian |

If it's the whole assembly presumably with control box and resistor (2 speed) yes it will fit.
Resistor will almost certainly be open circuit (so low speed won't work!) You will need to upgrade the silver resistor to the higher wattage gold type I supply......... http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=68336 If you've bought another used 4 wire motor the low speed will almost certainly be duff. (we've never ever seen a second hand one of these actually work!) In which case you'll need this kit instead........ http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...d.php?t=189409 Good luck
