1933 GMC (Yellow Coach) Taxicab


Recommended Posts

I have a 1933 Yellow cab, (GMC) Taxi. It has a 221 OHV 6 cylinder engine stamped GMC. I understand that this is a Buick offshoot. I am trying to find ANY service/parts books, information, etc. pertaining to this engine. It has a Marvel updraft carburetor, and no apparent timing marks. HELP!~

Even if there were no timing marks it is easy to set timing.  #1 at TDC on compression stroke set points just to start opening.  Once engine is running adjust by ear or by two fingers resting lightly on the fender.
