ORDERED THE PUMP KIT. I BOUGHT ANOTHER ELECTRIC PUMP WITH A MOTOR. IT FAILED THE SAME WAY. 10 MINUTES OF RUNNING TURN IT OFF TURN IT ON DOES NOT RUN.

PAUL, I ORDERED THE PUMP KIT. I MENTIONED THE PUSHROD HAD BEEN ADDED ON TO TOM. HE SAID IT PROBABLY WAS NOT NEEDED. DOES ANONE HAVE A SPEC ON THE LENGHT OF THE ROD? IT IS RIGHT AT 8 INCHES. NO THOUGHTS ON THE ELECTRIC PUMP. DO U KNOW WHAT PRESSURE THE PUMP IS SUPPOSED TO PUT OUT? I NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT THE WEBERS REQUIRE. THEY RAN FINE ON THE ELECTRIC UNTIL IT STOPPED RUNNING. MIKE

PAUL, MY PUMP DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THE PIC OF AC PUMP I SEE THE REBUILD KIT FOR.

LOW PRESSURE. 3 WEBERS ON MY 1930 FRANKLIN SPEEDSTER. MIKE

😀I HAVE REPLACED 4 FUEL PUMPS IN THE LAST MONTH. THEY LAST ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THE FAILURE MODE IS I GO FOR A RIDE 5-10 MINUTES AND EVERTHING IS FINE. THE NEXT TIME I START THE CAR THE PUMP FAILS. I DISECTED THE LAST PUMP AND A COMPONENT ON THE PUMP IS BURNED. ALL PUMPS ARE THE SAME PHYSICAL APPEARANCE BUT FROM DIFFERENT SUPPLIERS. I CHECKED FOR OVER VOLTAGE CONDITION. FIRST PUMP HAS BEEN ON THE CAR OVER FIVE YEARS WITHOUT A PROBLEM. H E L P !!!!

Haven't been working on the Speedster much. Helping my son fix an old house. Still having a problem with the wheels I had made at Witmer Carriage. Other than that everything if fine . The motor is still running and hasn't shown any leaks much to my suprise. Mike

It is pretty much finished. Working on some wood wheels and maybe but some instruments in it. Mike

Al, Franklin wheels are finally going back to Witmer next week to get fixed Mike

Al, Thanks for the note. Everything seems to be OK. I haven't driven the car much. I just had a four corner fusion on my right wrist. It will be 2 months in a cast. Mike

Finally got the Motor back together and it ran about 2 minutes and the Oil Pump Shaft Seized up. The washer under the pump shaft got on top of the pin that holds it in place. This happened when I replaced the low distributor with the high distributor housing. Thanks to a member of the Franklin Club I got a replacement shaft and it fixed the problem. I was fortunate that the only damage was the oil pump gear. The cam gear destroyed the oil pump gear and not the gear on the cam that drives it..

Five 1928 Cadillac Wooden Wheels in Good Condition. Wheels are complete with Brake Drums, Bearings, Rims, Lug Nuts and Bolts and Hubcaps. The Wheels came off my Car when I changed to Wire. The unpainted wheel does not have bearings. I also have an additional Rim. Asking $1500 for All. Mike DeFelice 845-853-2563

Looking for a 1932 Franklin Distributor Cap that has the wires coming out the side. It is a two piece cap and was used on other six cylinder cars like Auburn, Chrysler, Packard Pierce, Reo, Stewart. Thanks Mike 845-853-2563 40mdefelice@gmail.com

Al, I would sell the wheels. They do need to go back to Witmer Carriage unless someone has the ability to get them finished. I also have a new set of tires and the snap rings. Mike
