Thanks for the information. That makes alot of sense due to the difficulty of access to the rockers on these cars. I think I will pursue connecting it for actual use.

Mine could be a safer version. Thanks for your response.

Yes. What Franklin31 said. I knew no different at that time.

I have original invoice from White Post showing $160 plus $20 for shipping.

It is not the vacuum tank as that is mounted outboard of this device directly above the terminal strip. There is a rod that passes through the firewall. I suppose it could be used to pump fuel directly into the intake manifold.

I have two unused brass sleeved wheel cylinders for a 1928 12B and others for sale. Sleeving was done by White Post Restorations. $170 including shipping.

I have seen a picture of one of these on a driveable Franklin. I recently acquired just the cowl from a 1928 Franklin and now I have an actual unit. I still don't know what it is. Get in on the fun and add your guesses to mine. PS; The picture needs to be rotated 90% to the left to show it's actual position. One end of it is mounted to the vertical surface of the cowl above the terminal strip on the drivers side.
