OK, I took one of the four coils, cut it in half than counted the turns.

Each coil has 310 turns of wire, and each coil weighs 1.585 OZ.

So I guess I need a half pound spool of wire.

Does anybody know what guage I need?

I watched this video

and the motor size/wattage, and type is like the motor in my westy. He uses 26 guage wire.

Here is a spool of wire

What do ya'll think?
