  1. It’s not listed in the Delco Remy catalogue which covers up to 1929-48 so must be after that. http://restoringcornelius.com/files/29-48 Delco Remy.pdf
  2. Forgot to mention, mine is a 34 series 40 Buick. Ray
  3. The switch is secured on a bracket with slotted holes to allow for some adjustment.
  4. Are you sure the booster is actually providing any brake assistance? I had similar situation with very heavy pedal on my Fairlane which had a remote booster. Had the booster reconditioned and it made a world of difference.
  5. This big Delco-Remy document may be useful….https://ia903004.us.archive.org/31/items/DelcoRemyElectricalServicePartsCatalogA1011929Through1948OCR184Pages/Delco-Remy - Electrical Service Parts - Catalog A-101 - 1929 through 1948 - OCR - 184 pages.pdf
  6. Can anyone help to ID these 2 beauties for a friend of mine? Ray
  7. If you suspect the cct breaker on the light switch is faulty or weakened these units are readily available in different amperage ratings.
  8. Hoping someone can tell what car this smiths clock is from. The clock is a Smiths, made in England. The orientation of the numbers on the face is different to any others I have seen.
  9. Pete, looks the same pump as I have on my 34 series 40. Ray
  10. I suspect that may be installed upside down- to get the correct orientation the actuating lever should be pointing up. Also note I think the “bowl” section of the pump can be removed and re-installed to get the correct location of the pump outlet.
  11. The 55er, Thanks. yep it does look like that, It’s fitted in my 1934 233ci Buick 8 so obviously not the original but seems to work OK.
  12. Hi all, I have a Delco-Remy distributor with number 111080 on the tag running in my 1934 series 40 Buick. (there may be another number after this but I can’t be sure). Pretty sure it’s not the correct distributor for the car but can anyone help this distributor? thanks, Ray
  13. Thanks edinmass, wow 6500. I have them advertised for sale over here in Australia for $300. That’s what I paid for a set of Buick correct covers that I am using now. Ray
  14. Hi all, can anyone pls identify these sidemount covers ? They came with a 1934 Buick but I don’t the ink they are the original ones for this car.
  15. Hi. The info in this site indicates your engine no. is in the correct range for a 1940 series 50. https://www.teambuick.com/reference/ident_engine_til_52.php
  16. The clutch on my 1934 series 40 is almost out of adjustment. It’s difficult to get into gear especially when it’s hot. If I adjust further I can select gears OK but the graphite clutch release bearing is in constant contact with the graphite bearing in the clutch lever, this of course generates heat and noise and will result in excessive wear of the surfaces. I have a new resurfaced driven disc installed but it didn’t make any difference. Could it require adjustment of the clutch pivot screws ? Any suggestions will be very welcome.. ray

  18. Hi , thinking of doing this myself. what size hole did you drill please? I assume the whole is just to allow any trapped air to escape ? ray
  19. Sagefinds, sorry I can’t help ID these. I have a pair myself that I am trying to ID. Not wishing to hijack your thread but hoping someone out there can help us both ..
  20. I am in inner Sydney area.
