looking for what type of motor can be run by a rheostat. I have a 1/4 hp blower that seems to not want to take a rheostat. IS there some type of special motor that will take the adjustment? I have tried several rheostats and wiring configurations and no luck...

Shaded pole motors for rheostats.

Permanent split capacitor motors will run with rehostat also, just not capacitor start.
