Well, I killed my motor. It was spectacular. Somehow its grounded so when power went through it it turned my speedo cable into a speedo rod. It was surprising and smokey, and did not blow a fuse! So I need a new motor. Anyone have any suggestions? Currently running a sr48600. I'll probably stick with a series motor again? I have a transition car with the pinion mounted 6hp on the Dana axle. Any thoughts on d&d, or others?

Hi All, I am passing my project along to someone who may not have so much on their plate. It has newer US batteries, an upgraded 3 stage charger, and a Curtis controller. It has an intermittent ignition switch, so last time I ran it, it seemed to be lacking in power. Tires were replaced, and the brakes need the usual. I have the shop manual to go with it, and a few spare parts. I would like to retrieve the $2500 I have invested in it, but will take the best reasonable offer. Car is located in Plainfield VT at our home. COVID-safe transfer only, which means large bills cash, or a bank check or transfer. I do have a trailer that could transport it up to 75 miles for a fee, or meet you for a transfer trailer to trailer. Don't be shy; make your best offer. Thanks, Bob A.

As title says it was filled to the wrong plug hole. Turns out this whole is a drain plug for if the axle was mounted differently. I made a new set up to test if it was ran dry. At the amount that was in it when I drove 10 miles it was below the splash pick up. It had about 2.5 oz in the case. At 3.5 oz it will splash and get some lubrication. The first drain I seen some small amount of glitter in the oil, nothing out of the ordinary for a yearly oil change. The magnet had nothing new stuck to it. I filled the oil to the proper amount 11oz and went back out for 10 miles. Dropped the oil and seen a small amount of glitter and about 3 or 4 pieces of metal the size of a grain of sand. I put an inspection camera in the diff and see no gouges or scratches. There is some where marks on the spiders and that is to be expected since the car has 40k miles. The gears are shiny and no scratches. There is no blue overheat color or the metal. Refilled the car with oil put it on stands and spun the wheels with the motor, no odd noises or new noises or leakes. Rock the wheels back and forth by hand and there is no grinding or excessive play just the normal lash between the gears (give or take 1/4 inch on the tire back and forth). I see no damage as of yet but most certainly did accelerate wear. I also used a royal purple 75w 90 as a lube. I imagine that this also helped with reducing wear becouse of its molecular bonding additives. The gears were spun at high speed in my mock test without the oil and they remained shiny, so I think the oil was still on the gears through the 10 miles. Let me know if you have questions or comments, I will call royal purple and ask about there oil, I am a nerd. Curious about there additive package and how it reacts on metal. Alot of new oils will impregnate the metal with anti wear protective coating and reduce wear in a situation like mine. Thanks if you held on this far in the email.

Confirming Citicar rear brake cylinder replacements are Raybestos WC7379. eBay $10.96 free shipping.

I've converted my early Citicar front disk brakes to four piston motorcycle calipers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsARvyt1ftU

Citicar mentioned in time line of electric car evolution.

I found what looks like a direct replacement for the C-car backup lights: https://www.buspartswarehouse.com/8563360 If you need the lens only: https://www.buspartswarehouse.com/3743031 I ordered a lens, my base is in good shape.

Anyone know what happened to the C-Car links at: http://ccar.albatrossindustries.com/C-Car/

My wife said she noticed a citicar recently posted on ebay. Looks like a red maybe 1976.

Why can't I add Pictures to my album? Thanks

I'm going to make some SV48 stickers that go on the front fenders. Should the light color of the sticker be white or a light yellow? Mine are currently light yellow but that might be from age. Thanks, Harry

Harry, Thank you for your e-mail today (3 Dec. 2019). I've been wanting to ask you, and the c-car group, if you know of anyone in the Bally, Pa. area (Boyertown, Pottstown, Allentown) that can get my 48-v car working again? It's not a c-car, although is wired up the same way. I call it PIG car (Portable Inverter Golfcart) since this is the year of the Pig. Let me know if you know of anyone who can do it.

It has been about 2 weeks since my brakes went out while driving. Turns out it ran low on fluid. I topped off with dot3 and flushed the system. Everything works well now. Wanted to fix this earlier but am in the middle of a home renovation. Sent from my MetroPCS 4G LTE Android Device

I have one but it will take a lot of bush whacking to get to it. Reserve a spot for me…. ;-) Yellow Purchased in 1978? Located in Glen Burnie, MD Last registered in 1985 ish 48 volt STO condition I guess. But the real condition is sitting in the weeds untouched for 35 years Will finally retire in coming june.
