Hi.

I just built my ZX-5

For some reason my car runs backwards. :o

edit...

nevermind my motor was rebuilt with the endbell 180deg in the wrong direction.

Dare say we've probably all done this at some point, usually to great applause :scratch:

...and if no one does see it, probably best not to tell anyone :oops:

I always mark my cars at the timing point AND put an + on the side that positive is, never built one backwards myself ;) You can also spin the motor up and check the motor is spinning the right way, if your holding it spindle down it should spin left.
