Only fuel kit avail.

The diaphragm is to thin and when tighten . it would bind.

So i added shim 1/16 inch gasket material.
Works fine now.

Put shim on top half so suction side would have better seal.

Good Morning all...Nice photographs of Fort Rosecrans...My Grandfather was buried there in 1949 (Charles Edward Keptner) and my Father (Ernest Joseph Vitucci Sr) in 1966. It is a really beautiful place and the view of San Diego Bay is out of this world. Thanks, Ernie

Ernie.

Your welcone .

The picture that shows rear window emblem. I think my grandparents are in that section.

But more where Packard is parked.

Many of the soldiers, sailors, and marines who are interred in Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery sailed past that location on their way out to the Pacific Theater in WW-II, and later more who were headed to Korea and Vietnam. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Cargo jet leaving north island.

Taking pictures with a phone out side is a b. You can't see.. What your taking picture of...

Stuck in reverse

Something with sector or fingers. L to R gets stuck.

So pulling trans. Cause you have to remove alot to get motor off.

So this will let me see how trans is doing. Add Oki hole. Add extra plate in high range.

And put in melling oil pump.

My adapter..

And melling pump where bolt goes was not machined flat. See where lock washer was touching one side. So I milled it flat.

Using 25 thou shim. Not shim stock..to seal over bolts.

Still need to make shaft.
