Which Trico vacuum motor do I have?
 

I recently acquired a very good looking Trico vacuum motor that looks like it will fit my 30 CCPU.

On the cover; right in the center of the cover "hump," is the Number 6. Might also be a G. No other I.D. Numbers except the Trico cast-in Logo.

What do I have? Thank you!

Is the cover held on by screws? Any other digits KXC1.

Please add one picture (maybe more) or 1000 words.

There are many different Trico motors, look at the mounting tabs and the switch, some of them have the switch on the other side. It should look like the picture.

Mitch.. It has a snap on cover. No other digits.

Just like 30 Coupe's image. It also has a wiper shaft that's 1/4" diameter, 1 7/8" long with a small hole and a thin groove near the outer end.

According to the Standards the shaft should only be 3/8" long.

Thanks Bob..

I saw that in 30 Coupe's image. What does anyone one think about the wiper's authenticity and the longer wiper shaft? The shaft is brass.

To expand on Mitch's question, doesn't the snap-on cover mean a later issue?

You might be right. Do you think it will still fit my 30 CCPU? Is it a replacement for the KXC1?

What alterations would I have to make on the wiper shaft?

Thank you!

Larry
