Title: 28 Year Old Coleman Air Conditioner Fan Motor
Post by: Old Toolmaker on August 06, 2020, 09:59:49 am
After stretching the life of the combination condensor-evaporator fan motor on our 28 year old Coleman roof top air conditioner, and after purchasing a motor that would fit if I built a new motor mount, I found this motor.  It's a direct drop in replacement, the motor capacitor wiring is slightly different but if you mind your pees and ques not an issue.

2-speed.  We have the light weight entry level Unihome with the Torsionaire suspension.  Drives like a sports car.

Good info here. Might need it someday. I too am a fan of Johnstone Supply and Grainger has never let me down.
