I just picked up one of the old style 9v technic motors and I am having a
problem.
http://w3.one.net/~hughesj/technica/registry/9volt/2838.gif
it works just fine when I just run it so the motor is ok.
If I make it into a vechicle however, it works when I hold it in the air but
not when I put it on the bench, carpet, floor, tiles, desk etc etc etc.
I guess I am doing something wrong with the gears I am using (I tried with
various combos, including an 8 teeth on the motor and a 24 teeth on the
driveshaft but that didnt work), choice of wheels or something.
Can someone point me to a set (or MOC) that shows how to use the old style 9v
motor with one of the folowing wheel types?
the 30.4x14VR (as used on the red speed slammers car)
http://w3.one.net/~hughesj/technica/registry/wheel/2994.gif
the 49.6x28VR (as used on the boss roborider & the millenium slizer)
http://w3.one.net/~hughesj/technica/registry/wheel/6595.gif
the 43.2x28S (as used on the "mud masher")
http://w3.one.net/~hughesj/technica/registry/wheel/6580.gif
I can also get some of the 13x24 hubs (as used in model team sets & the 8835
forklift & also the 8255 rescue trike) but it will be time consuming to get
hold of them so I dont want to if I dont need to.

I want to know what gears etc I should be using to get this thing working with
the wheels I have.
In case it matters, I am using one of the small system battery boxes, does that
make a difference?

I am planning to use some of the old "crown gears" to connect the motor axle to
the back rear axle.

I also intend to use the old steering link parts such as the steering arm, 81
to steer this vechicle, in case that makes a difference.

I dont want to find out that this $20 electric motor I just bought is just an
expensive paperweight :)
Or alternativly if someone has scans of the instructions that come with the old
9v motor, mabie that could help...
