KITS

Dear Bill White,
Something that you MIGHT like to know...

Some time ago, I rebuilt an Autolite 4100 1.12 C4AF-9510DG. Mr. Kultulz (a VERY savvy Ford guy) said to see if I couldn't get a "Rettor Tune-Up Kit" from Ford.

I went to the local Ford Dealership, and prevailed on Larry, the Parts Counter Man to check with the MAIN Ford Parts Depot in Dearborn, for a C2SZ*9A586*D Rettor Tune-Up Kit. He did, and VOILA', they HAD (as of February 14, 2008) 11 (eleven) of them! They are NOS parts, and cost $47.68 ($50.90 with tax).

They, as of February 16, 2008, have 10 of them left, as I got one (it took two days for it to arrive in Texas from Michigan). And it was a GREAT kit, in EXCELLENT shape, and I did the rebuild/restore of the above mentioned Autolite 4100.

The kit didn't have the Primary Accelerator Pump Diaphragm, but I got THAT from NAPA. One has to ask for a: SAP64-562A P7Y.

BTW, the little instruction sheet that comes with the Accelerator Pump was printed wrong. It is a "precise" mirror-image how it REALLY should be. It CANNOT be assembled the way it shows in the picture, but it is PROPERLY installed if you hold the image up to a mirror, and install it the way that you see in the image in the mirror! No, HONEST!

Go to the bottom of the page and then scroll up 55 JPGs and there will be the backward image. You'll see what I mean.

Anyway, hope you are well.
