just started putting on the many fittings on the motor, including the fuel filter bowl.


showed the parts of the check valve for the passenger's side of the motor, along with one of the others that i had. different size, but same function.

quick drain plug for the block antifreeze, driver's side. passenger's side was just a normal plug. don't know if that was factory but it was on there when i got the motor, so i put it back.

also to show the difference lighting does to the color. there are a couple of duplicate photos but the lighting was differnet. one shows what is more of the blueish and the other the wrong torquise color.

also will be rebuilding the vacuum advance soon, i have cloth reinforced neoprene ordered. was easy to pry up the retaining ring to get to the diaphragm. it is 2.5" in diamter with 1/4 hole in the middle. i will use a 1/4 bolt and nut to seal back together. if i am successful with that i will be glad to do others for my Packard friends.

enjoy

Hank
