need help reversing electric motor

I had to change the motor on one of my small feed augers but the used one I put on it spins the wrong way. I took the cover off the junction box but the diagram is unreadable.

So here"s what I"ve got.

Cord coming in. White and black (and a ground)

Black goes to p1 which is one side of the reset switch.

White goes together with t2 t4 and t5.

T1 comes off the reset straight into the motor somewhere.

P2 comes from the reset, is tied to t3 and t8.

Anyone know how to change the direction of this motor?
 
Do you know what brand and the model number of the motor?? May be able to find the diagram online somewhere. I would be hesitant to make any guess as it would be simply a guess for me anyways.
If you can post the brand and model I will be happy to search as well.
 
All I can read off the tag is that its made by Doerr, 1/2 hp, 1725 rpm, 115/230 volts and 9 amp.

I don't know who thought it was a good idea to put stickers on motors instead of stamped metal tags. The sticker is scratched and peeled up all around the edges and bottom
 
Thanks for giving me a excuse to dig out my "Ugly"s Electrical References". According to that switch leads 5 and 8 and the motor will reverse.

Glad to see you got the problem fixed! I just got a chance to check in, and see it's all taken care of.
 

Find the start windings with an ohm meter. They will be 20-50 homs while the run windings will be 2-10 ohms.
Swap polarity of the start windings.
