binnie: not too much of a deal, since I got cable internet instead of dialup, things go faster. My disability keeps me from doing all that much, so I spend a lot of time on the www. 5 years to 8 years ago the www was about all that kept me going. SO, I have a HUGE favorites folder [6,032 files]. Plus I love finding out about new stuff.

1) Still trying to find the engine.
2) No idea, are you willing to spend it considering the shape it's in?Â
3) See previous post in this thread. Your electric supplier would be the one to tell you.
4) Depending on the wiring it might be able to be reconnected to give single phase at three times the amperage. Basically 14.4 A {phase A} + 14.4 A {phase B} + 14.4 A {phase C}, 43.2 amps/single phase . See if there are nine(or 12) leads coming out of the windings. { hot/neutral/hot for each of three phases, plus a ground??}  A transformer could be used to drop the 600v. Is that a non-USA voltage?Â
