Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
That's what I'm doing. My CC is converted to 12v with alternator and the Prius pump setup. So far it seems to be working fine. The whole reason that I came up with this setup is that I was having

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
Why not convert the car to 12v? Then the problem goes away. While that’s not original Crosley, neither is an electric water pump.
If you have a 12v system, there are many electric water pumps

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
I'd like to know what the amperage draw is on 6 volts. That would be interesting.

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
In another post I said that I tried the pump on 6v (not in the car) and it produced less flow than the 5 gallons per minute than it does on 12v. I'm guessing about 2 to 3 gallons per minute.

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
It is standard practice to fuse at about 50 percent of the expected current draw. So you would expect that the current draw at 12v would be less than 7.5 amps. This is a permanent magnet motor so it

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
Looks like the Prius supplies power to the water pump through a 15A 12V fuse. So, if it did draw the same wattage @ 6V, you'd be looking at 30A or less (most likely less, as has been pointed out

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
Don't think the Prius pump draws amperage Frost calculates when it is used in a 12 volt Prius. Believe at 6 volts the pump would do less work than at 12 volts. Not sure what the amperage would be if

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
Ron, I didn't check your math but you are correct if you were replacing the 12v motor with a 6v that put out the same power. The 12v motor will pull less with 6v attached than 12v. Try this, if you

Re: 6v / 12v water pump ... max temperature ?
I agree with the pump portion of the unit, but now lets talk about the motor. But reducing the voltage by 50% you need to double the amperage to obtain the same power output. Unknown horse power

Toyota does not provide temperature ratings for this pump. That being said, pumps made of similar materials are generally rated at 220 degrees. Generally if a designed for a specific max temperature

Re: 1951 super
I have seen the HC stamp but would guess the 10 is 10:1 compression Quicksilver just like your HC since it has the Vitameter bracket still attached.

Re: 1951 super
Hi
I also have a 51 supersports that has the vitameter injection. It has HC stamped there. What I can see on your engine looks like 010 maybe a rebuild with 010 under bearings or 010 overbore?

6v / 12v water pump
Earlier this month I posted that I had developed a 12 volt DC water pump system for my 48 CC. There was some interest as to whether it would work running on 6 volts. What I am using is an inverter

Re: Looking for information on a tin block (COBRA) I have.
Patricia,
Do you have any pictures?
I will have to dig through my past issues and find that Quarterly, Fred!
Thank you for all the information!
