JO's gasified 92 Volvo

@Tone! Finally!
So far I have only put together some stuff laying around, taking up space on my shelves.
As you can see in the video I produced 10-11A (the only belt I had that fitted is old and cracked and I didn’t want to push it). Anyway, these amps should equal about 7kW (~10hp).
I didn’t know exactly where to start, but I reved the Volvo up to about 2200 rpm and hit the switch. The electric motor slowed the Volvo down to 1800 rpm.
My meter display doesn’t show negative power, but my solar app showed ~4kW. It should mean the 3kW missing is reactive power. Time to look for capasitors.
