Re: 1939 Packard Twelve valve noise

I am just getting into my dads 12 ,

have silencers apart, they went thru fire, were rusted, but the springs still feel robust,

I did buy new springs many years ago, A guy in st. louis had them, there was an ad in PI,

I was back there one year and bought the heavier spring from him too..

all of this will be in my 56 ultra blog, I do have a question on top part with holes in it, does it fit tight or loose..?.. once I got them apart, some fit tight, others loose, as in slips in and out..

little early,


but I have around 100 miles on my one piece shaft, no pressure problems,

Had the dist out and in, no problems,

I think a needle thrust washer on bottom of drive gear would be better, so it doesn't wear into plate.

This is a jack vines pump, with my mods..
