ok -- I have read all this stuff and even tried the patent office search. That came up empty.
wlagarde, Dou you have a pic of the pipes and how they connect? I have it all figured out except how the pipes work together. I have come up with what I think might work but it does not jive with any pics I have seen.

Here's a link that describes the details of how the pipes fit together: http://pages.infinit.net/lambertv/pages/index.htm. Go to the "projects: link on the left and then the "aquagate repair" link on the left. If this is not clear, I will disassemble mine and take pics this weekend and post them...

All of you are using the wrong motor. Especially stay away from the Digi-key motors. You need to just buy a charbroil rotiseri at lowes for $20 and take the motor and switch out of it. All of the motors listed are way to whimpy and may burn up and catch fire.
The sea swirl company uses a custom made motor just for them and can be purchased for $35 from them only. The closest specs are the charbroil according to the actual maker. Dont want see any one burn down their home Don |

It may suffice. Try this first...although Grainger discontinued the motor used in the project (Grainger item no. 6Z535), your local Grainger branch may have it in stock (this is how I got mine). Use their website to locate the branch nearest to you and call them. Also, if your place of work has an account you can get a significant discount (this is what I did)...

The 20 oz / in is the concern. They get hot and smoke. You should be up in the in /lbs ratings. FYI automotive A/C O-rings are perfect. Most shops or parts stores have assortments. The connecting arm for the belcrank to motor is a draglink arm for a T-max RC truck. A good judge of motor is the shaft size. smaller than 1/4 its pretty much a sure bet that the motor is to small. If you change the setup to two gears you get a cool 360 rotation. T-max drive gears can be converted to fit nicely.

The Charbroil brand is perfect. The Chromed with plastic end drag links wok best because the have a ball and socket joint like a car. Its also best not to use any metal in the enclosure as it will corrode quickly. The links made by t-max will not corrode.
Hope this make it a little easier Don |

The Hurst motor (Grainger 6Z535) is rated at 9.5 inch pounds and is small enough to fit in the Serpac case. It is cheap (if you have access to a Grainger account) and from my experience runs cool and thus far operates flawlessly on my unit...

Cool my bad, that would be a good motor if you could find one. Has amost exactly the same specs as the charbroil. Have you tried it on a 1" or a 1 1/4 model? How much flow are you running?
So far I've been able to hold a seal on a single unit with a mag24 my goal is four 1" on a single mag36. Don |
