In its original wiring, it runs counter-clockwise as I face the shaft.... I can get it to run clockwise by rotating the bus bars through 90 degrees BUT I have to also move the Cap from pin2 to pin4 which seems odd and I don't have enough pins in the tumbler switch I have in order to implement that.
I was hoping an expert would reveal how dumb I was and say something like "you reverse it by moving the cap only"
I did, I don't know much about AC motor schemes but that motor looked (and sounded) like a different beast to mine.
