Lack of food vendors & no chocolate for sale in the chocolate field
ArticiferTom replied to FJD2004's topic in Hershey Meet
There certainly no lack of food vendors this year . In front of Giants Center had every type food truck . The other side Chocolate had a good supply some have move to the tree lined lane between North and South , may be to get out of sun . -

I believe the IE 130-140 code is for early 4 cylinders . Club book said they where shortly down grades from 1-1/4 to 1 ton for 1929 Code 1 -E DA engine .

Great truck, Welcome here . You soon get more info . I am thinking maybe '30 1 ton DA140 . On side of engine is casting date under starter . That will help .

It is not just the taper pin but you must have good felt seals in the ends or oil will run right out and not wick to wear surface .

Maybe Chevy truck . Dodge more rounded .

Carter carb '31 Dodge Truck export (RHD)With mystery knob .
ArticiferTom posted a topic in Technical
I have a pic of friends Carter brass bowl off his '31 UF 1/2 ton truck . We cannot figure what this knob on back side is does not show on any literature i have . Truck is British export right hand drive . The knob is large thumb screw with long needle as seen in pic . Maybe be adjustable main jet or something . Does not seem to affect carb when turned . I see in books exports had some different model number , most seem to relate to linkage layout . Maybe DRT-8 176s engine is 196ci u30 ? Any help appreciated . -
Before getting in to switch . Use wire to bypass both existing . Also extra grounding would have been on dimmer not highest . it is possible wrong lamps are in or one is about to fail . Clean all contact points first and dielectric grease to them and cleaned terminals of switch . Inners are not split like wires going to HL's . So avoid disassembly .
