1932 series 50 carb

[kevin32]

does any body have any pictures of carb linkage , or where I can get any mine only has throttle linkage , but nothing else would like to find missing linkage / rods or make new ones

[Bob Engle]

There are a lot of linkage pieces on the 32 Buicks.  gas pedal to pivot link which has a rod to the wizzard contol valve and one to the back side of the carb.  Heat contol linkage from dash  to engine side of carb, and from engine side of carb to engine side of exhaust divert valve.  For the steering wheel throttle control, there is a rod from the die cast pivot at the bottom of the steering column,  ( be careful with this pivot part most are broken from over tightening onto the column.) to the driver side of the carb.  I hope the photos help.  Some of the parts are ilustrated in the parts manual and there are part numbers for the various pieces.  The numbers don't do you much good.  Let me know which pieces youare missing, I may be able to give you dimensions on them.

The gas pedal linkage attaches to a pivoting bellcrank.  the mounting bracket for the bellcrank  is on two threaded studs .  The studs are on the top water jacket pan.  Counting from the top of the cover nearest the firewall the two mounting studs are in the 2nd and 3rd  1/4-20 thread  holes.  This is not apparant from any manuals and are difficult to see in any photos.
