David Kirk Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hello, I have realised that my Spitfire 1500 wiper motor is fitted with a 130 degree gear, which explains the sweep of the wiper blades over shooting off the side of the windscreen. I understand that it should have a 100 degree gear, which are hard to obtain. I have also seen a 105 degree gear on sale on Ebay and said to be correct for a Spitfire 1500. Which is correct More out of curiosity, does anyone have a list of gears / sweeps and their applications? David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerH Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hi David, does your car use the round body 14W wiper motor (Moss would suggest so) TRy here for replacement drive gear https://www.s-v-c.co.uk/product/14w-wiper-drive-gear/ If you use the DR3 wiper motor (square body) then it is possible (if you are seriously desperate) to reposition the crank pin Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kirk Posted February 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hello Roger, Yes, the 14W wiper motor. Thanks for the link to SVC. Not heard of them before (and I have owned Triumphs for more than 35 years! Amazing they do all the options in 5 degree steps. So does anyone know what my 130 degree gear is from (might help me sell it on eBay if I know what it fits) David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
