Re: IML: Dashpots

Thanks Elijah and Jack,

 

The number on the box is 1538 426 and was unopened when I rec'd it. Bingo! Looks as though someone slipped a ringer in there sometime in the last half century :0)

 

Thanks so much for taking the time to look this up for me.

 

Gary

 I'm looking for the part number of the dashpot used to slow the throttle closing on our '56 C-73. 

The parts book I have lists it in section 14-50-35, but when I turn to that section it is missing in my book..

Hi Gary,

According to my 1955-58 Parts Catalog (published Nov. 10, 1958, "Supersedes May 12, 1958"), the original carburetor was stamped 2314S (part number 1637 365).  The Dash Pot number for this carburetor is 1538 426 (shown on page 14-38 in section 14-50-25).

I see 1538 426 listed with several other carburetors, so it's not specific ONLY to your car, which *should* make it a little (?) easier to find.  Should.  LOL!

If there's a part number shown on the Dash Pot that you have, I'll be glad to cross reference it for you.

Hope this helps!

Elijah
