I bought a new Aqua flo single speed pump but it came in as a 3400 RPM unit instead of a 1700. Can I wire the pump to a slower speed and if so how?

Probably not ... 1725 and 3400 <> are standard speeds for electric motors. See if your dealer will make an exchange for you for the proper speed pump.

I need to know which wire going where

All motors have an electrical diagram on the side of the unit. This easily explains where to place wiring. Since we did not install your electrical wires, we have no idea what your color code system is. Just have to use the diagram

I was told that the Aqua Flo Master Xp2 Spa pump 1.5 hp 2 speed pump was the equivalent to the Sta rite Max E Pro 2 speed pump but then from another source was told that the Aqua Flo was not made for in...

I responded to the previous question in regards to the motor only. The xp2 does not have the strainer basket that the max-e-pro has . If this was a regular hot tub, the xp2 would work great, if this is above ground, then you do need a pump with a strainer basket. Again the xp2 will not work for an inground hot tub as the set up is different than an above ground unit.

Wiring a new pump but the wires are different colors

Neutral should be white. To be sure pull the cover plate off the *********** of the motor on the back side of the plate it will have the wires color coded for which wire is neutral and which is hot. Normally Black would be hot and the yellow wire could be second speed so if you look on the plate on the new motor you will be able to see the wiring diagram. This is assumeing it is a 110 Volt motor single phase.

Wiring diagram for flo-master 56 frame xp2. I have a new pump that was improperly wired from the factory.It is a two speed pump only running one speed. If I knew where the factory wiring should be...

The side of the motor will have a wiring diagram for how to connect the common, low and high speed leads. Your wire harness should have a white (common), black (usually low), red (usually high) and green (ground) wire. If high and low are backwards, switch the black and red leads.
