Title: HG distributor
Post by: Dr Bert on January 22, 2005, 11:35:56 PM
Just acquired a '46 HG!  Service manual shows Herc. with a magneto; mine has a distributor.Is this original, or did some come equipped this way.  (1XK3 engine)?  Also, will not shift into 2nd.  Would appreciate any info as to what is wrong.  1st and reverse shift smoothly--3rd feels like it is only engaging half way.  Thanks

distributor is off another engine, How is the travel of second and third gear on the shift lever when compared with first or reverse? Does your serial number tag have Oliver and Cletrac on the tag?

Bert, is it a factory distributor? Or is it a "homemade" distributor made from a magneto? That was quite a common practice.
