I am looking to repo this tail pipe clamp for my '31 Dodge Pickup . Both bracket and strap . Need stock sizes , looks like 1 0r 1-1/4 x 1/8" . Also tail pipe diameter .

Success , after some thought decided to not try flare and changed fitting to compression with sleeve . After all it is vacuum not pressure , and the shut off valve is not a factory thing , but added safety device .

If it is like the Zenith's and is main jet start at 3 to 4 turns out . Set idle at, you have . If it runs , rev and hold half to two thirds rpm . Then clockwise in until rpms start to drop off . Then back counter-cw until max rpm reached . going past you notice drop off and roughness again . Back at max point turn 1/4 turn ccw out to rich it .

Thanks All . Everyone hit some of it this time . First after taking my stronger cheaters out to garage found it is double flare . Re did practice ones with ream and cleaning , add oil per boxes instruction and was much better no splitting . But still not good enough on shape at seal . I believe there is hardening as one side collapsed . Will try actual up under truck if fails , new line time .

Thanks , this is not a double flare . Will try filing tomorrow and advise .

I was trying to put flare on my '31's steel fuel line . It kept splitting . Is it age or am I missing something . Tried twice on cut off piece . Sitting here now thinking would oil on flare tool have help . The split seems to be at a seam , remember this is gasoline line under vacuum not pressure or brake . Thanks Tom

The Ressurection of Daphne - a 1932 DL
ArticiferTom replied to Taylormade's topic in Dodge & Dodge Brothers
Could not find pics . I remember using a steel plate that I drilled a dimple in to match tack cup end . Then heated from bottom and preloaded cup with solder . Also skinned 1/8" insulation off wire, pushed cold tack in to open path, added rosin . Pushed over heated cap with solder in it . Covered 1/8" with shrink which probable did not need . The Filling Station also sells new made units . -

I redid a couple sets . The contact is metal as shown , like a tack . Skin wire back slide piece heat shrink back . Solder and advance shrink . Be sure to allow for going thur fibre washer and spring and shell . Will look to see if have pics . Use automotive wire on redo , original was rubber . Building wire is usually multi-layer coating . -
