Got an old GE Triclad 110/220 single phase 1HP cap start motor. No wiring diagram but it's got 11 wires. All the same color, 10 wires are numbered 1 through 10 and the additional wire is blank. Found a wiring diagram but it barely moves and groans and actually reverses direction every time you try to start it. Tested under no load. At a loss here.
I tested the caps, they are good. I know it was running 110v recently but I don't know how my buddy had it wired. Trying to wire it for 220v but I will take either. I can test with a DMM and post results here but I'm not sure where to go from here.
