Odd request - anyone have a ceiling fan destined for the dump?

[mtweller]

Triangle area specifically - trying to find an old ceiling fan, just need a functioning motor. And yes, it's cruiser related... for the 2FE project.

BTW, I have a working MegaSquirt ECU built, and talking to my laptop End of April might be dooable to have Dozer on the road!!!

I will make a call to an RDU friend that had two in his attic and let you know.

WTF? Ceiling fan? What do you have up your sleeve?

I have an old electric leaf blower motor, but no ceiling fan.

I want to spin the dizzy outside the motor. Ceiling fan is a cheap easy way with a reasonable RPM to drive it.

This will allow me to see the cam and crank signals at the MegaSquirt ECU w/o the engine actually running. My goal is to get all the signals verified (Wideband O2, cam/crank ignition, Coolant Temp, Intake Temp, TPS) so that when I fire the 2FE for the first time, troubleshooting will be a bit easier.

Guessing a leafblower is way out of the RPM range I need, but I'll double check - will let you know, thanks Terry.

I will check my crawl space and attic. I think there is one around here somewhere.

Don't go to any trouble Andrew (or Free) just yet. Chucked up nicely in a drill today at lunch (after chatting w/ Johnny C about ideas on this). It seems to work nicely I just need to see if the drill's going to give the RPMs needed - but I think this may be solved for now.

Thanks!

Ok. Found the fan. It is in my LC if you still want it. Been in the walk in crawl space for 7 years or so.

It is a hunter fan, white if someone else can use it and has the light attachment and white globes.
