I bought a Chineese garden water punp. 110 volts.
The wiring on it is black, blue and yellow.
I'm not sure of the motor wiring color code. Anyone know?

Those are European colors. Might google it! I have some Italian tools and put American plugs on them. Are all the colors solid or striped with another color?

Yellow is striped with green.No other stripes.
Yellow wire is ground. it is screwed to motor shell.
It does say L1 & L2 but no colors.

I'm used to 9 lead 3 phase motors --- took me a little to get used to the 12 lead EU/china motors -- and they are not well marked for sure.
