Well, the mechanic says he has no idea of how the glass bowl got a crack in it. He says it came back from the carb guy in shape and just does not know how it was cracked. Now I don't care how it happened - but rather where I can get a replacement so I can get my 1956 4 door Southampton running again. Suggestions anyone? Apparently I need new spark plug wire set as well - any preferences or opinions on this matter? Gas tank is off - it has been cleaned and sealed ($135) - need a new sending unit - leads on that item would also be appreciated. Do I need plug insulators and plug insulator tubes?? Saw those on Bernbaum's web site and as far as I know the mechanic just put the spark plugs in the holes and tighten them. Any all leads - opinions - ideas are certainly welcome. George Harcourt - San Antonio - Texas (no doubt the a/c no longer works so that will be next - that is after the radiator is cleaned and re-soldered)
