Look in The Filling Station catalog . I replaced one on my Dodge similar .

Looks like dist has manual retard advance cable hook up . Common until 32 . Radiator number is later then 33 by number range of my parts book for trucks . Do not know cars .

I would add to stakesides good advise . If engine has not been spun in while . You can get cheap hand suction/ pump from local auto store and prime through side oil channel plugs . Two guns full should get lube throughout . If some ones watches gauge you may see it even rise . If you want pulling plugs then will make hand cranking to get pump re-primed and oil circulating . Good Luck , Tom

Yes . checking with today .

The Plymouth engine where used in Graham / Dodge trucks in those years 31-32 . They are 7 " dia . there was mid year change in my master from Warner to Newcastle transmission. Maybe has something to do with . But either way 7" are common band number maybe 308949 . My truck is stock with 196ci pA engine .

Look at a manifold intake leak also . While running spray some kind of carb cleaner around manifold to see if rpm increase at leak .
-
Welcome Rex . We always like pictures . Also get the number with prefix letters from left side engine . This will help . Also the part of country your in . Some local talent maybe be available .
-
Glen there is some good info on using vacuum to set up as broker-len stated . I can post some info if you cannot find it .
-
Welcome aboard Glen . I beg to differ with you .There is plenty of info here on trouble shooting these fours . They where used in most Mopars from 29 to 35 . Getting a Book Of Instruction for your model is a good start . It will walk you thought tune up steps . It does sound like your plenty mechanical enough to do . Your compression down may be valves . I donot think if it is even would prevent running .
I was far from a mechanic when got my first antique 5 year ago , but have it running a reliable and safe for years now . The search feature is your friend . Try Plymouth 4 cly in the Dodge Brothers forum section and the tech forum or just general overall .
Check or bypass fuel delivery and very , very common problem . Hang a temp tank . Good luck ask question , help will come .

Viv , You correct on my '31 Dodge . It is a truck build by Graham Bros . they used the 196ci Plymouth 4 cyl Same as PA but called UT in the trucks . For six cyl. they used Desoto engines DD .

It may have been a problem on older models of carbs ( filterless) . But with a filter of rearward fin orientation maybe fine . Carter sold with fins in both directions .
Not a carb expert either , sorry .

You and other have been a big help .

Nice . Looks like it comes out from front , then . I see keyed gear . Are those babbit bearing by it ? And Does anyone have a gear ?
-
Great pic of it disassembled . The part I am referring as bad is not this one pictured but the one on the cam that drives this one . No removal of cam has been started , yet .
-
Asking for my cousin who is starting restore . Want's to know if camshaft gear to drive oil pump is replaceable . The best way to remove it ? And where to get if available . This is on 1913 Mod 22 4cylinder . Have parts diagram . Or call me at 570 401 five eight 68 . Tom

I like the Remflex with it's 50 percent compression and no need to retorque , Rem # 6034 and for exhaust manifold to pipe Rem#8068 . You will still need the one between intake and exhaust , not available from them but is on line . I used ferrules on exhaust ports to , maintain alignment during install and extra protection to gasket .
-
Looks more like 9411 .
-
Yes those are ferrules . However I believe them to go on exhaust four ports . It is more protection from heat and flame on any gasket . I used with my Remflex graphite gasket install last year . When making allowed for expansion both directions . Prior to 30's these engine used individual copper o-rings in each port . Then went to gaskets . Make sure head is flat . Manifolds when assembled, are parallel and true .
My Parts book list the water pump piece as a thrust washer . Most likely was brass or fiber .

If I recall mine where plastic or nylon . Most likely upgraded over the years .

It is from a price form 1950 revision in loose leaf catalog . My carb is 2 -3/8" center on center .
-
Look at my book . It does list SD for replacement on 31-32 Dodge trucks with U2 and DDG engines . Also 1930 Mopars with CJ, DD, CK and DD2 engines . Hay! , my truck fit this . Let me know .
On 12/4/2021 at 4:40 PM, Canadian PB Kid said:Hello, I have this Carter carb that is similar to the one that fits on my Plymouth PB, The major difference is the space between the mounting studs. Any ideals on what it's original application was for, I'd like to try and get it onto the proper vehicle.
Thanking in advance,
Dave
STAY SAFE!
