I have this old Westinghouse motor it turns clockwise and I need counter clockwise. It has 3 leads at a junction on the rear, 2 line and 1 middle lead labeled 0.
Anyone know how to help?
It is a 110v 3/4 hp single phase motor model 89z123a.

\$\begingroup\$ @DwayneReid looks like the power cable wires have lugs crimped on the ends \$\endgroup\$ – jsotola Jul 24 at 19:45
