29 erskine Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Was wondering if anyone out there could help me find an igniter gearing fly wheel for a 1929 erskine with a continental six. I would even buy whole distributor if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dictator27 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Distributor drive gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) That distributor drive gear was used on Erskine models 50, 51 and 52 (1927-1930). My interchange starts at 1927 so it may have been used earlier as well. The model 50 had a 637-Y distributor early on with the same drive gear. Later 50s had a 639-R distributor with the same drive gear. The automatic advance springs used on the 51 and 52 were only used on those cars. The two model 50 distributors used a different spring that was also used on three other non-Studebaker engines. You might like to contact George Rohrbach: Edited October 13, 2018 by Spinneyhill (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engine is a Continental 8F so maybe there was some other usage of the engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I think I read somewhere the other day the 8F and 9F engines were Erskine only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter R. Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 The gear you need is Delco-Remy # 820639 (12 teeth, 29/32" x 7/16" x 1/2"). I'll check if I have one in stock if you still need one. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
