I've got a sprinkler pump that I got from a guy (best price - free) He claimed it worked when he last used it. Come to find out, the impeller bushing race was trashed. I overhauled it and now the pump itself works very well. However, I made an educated guess on the rewiring to 120v since the schematic is faded on the motor case. Now, the thermal overload shuts it down after about a minute. I've got good voltage at the terminals. I'm afraid I've got the start-up capacitor on constant load - although I haven't blown one yet. I can't find any wiring diagrams for the motors on these pumps. I don't even know who the motor manufacturer is . Please help - any info would be greatly appreciated.
