i hope somebody can help me. i bought a doerr pump at a garage sale the other day. they guy told me it had never been used but tis a little old. it has a strange plug almost looks like a 240 volt. but the pump says that its 115v. i know very little about motors! when i connect it to my outlet with some wires.. it makes a humming noise and starts to heat up. the motor is defineitly not spinning. im pretty sure the pump works, im just doing something wrong. any ideas? the following is on the pump patent:3311293 insul class a 5.4 A 60HZ 1725 rpm 1/4 hp mod no
