Found: URGENTLY - Fan Pulley Ford Lynx 12V Generator

[lynx42]

Fan Pulley for Ford Lynx. Part no.10130.
As circled in RED.

The Ford Lynx has a 12volt electrical system and the generator has an unusual pulley. It screws onto the shaft (20tpi) and is held on by a cir-clip type of fitting. Most Ford of WWII are 6 volt (but not the Lynx which is 12 volt) and slide onto the shaft and have a keyway and held in place by a nut.

Measurements are shown on the attachment. Drawing not to scale.

Old age has caused the original to shatter into many bits.

Thanks Rick

Don't know about the single belt pulley found on Ford commercials but the twin belt pulley on Ford CMPs is a screw on type. I'll have a look amongst my genny bits and see what I can find.

I believe this is the same part Rick, let me know and I'll stick it in the post tomorrow.

Tony, Tony, Tony you are beyond words. Thanks Mate, it looks to be the right one. You have my address.

MLU works once again.

Thanks everyone.

No worries Rick, I've accumulated quite a variety of generator pulleys off my Ford CMP wrecks! The only real scarcity amongst them is an original CMP pulley! Or at least one without large chunks missing or several vanes busted off. I discovered this when trying to rebuild my own genny recently - the only spare twin belt pulley I could find was much smaller than the standard CMP pulley. This led me to consult the parts list, whereupon I discovered there were in fact two different diameter pulleys fitted, nominally 3 1/2" and 4 1/2", the explanation for the smaller one being: "Use where low cut in speed is desired." What this means off course is heaps more fan noise at cruising speed, so these are to be avoided I'd suggest - although perhaps it may offer a solution for overheating problems. Anyway it's worth knowing about so I thought I'd mention it.

BTW Rick I only have your PO Box address, I assume that's where you want it sent....? I've given it a quick scrub for better ID, which I probably should have done before posting pics! As you can see the vanes have been rubbing on the mounting bracket, the front bearing in this genny was completely shot.

Thanks Tony, The PO Box will do. I am off to town to get a pair of bearings for this genny, hopefully they will be off the shelf.

Regards Rick.

Rick, just to go back to the start, I would like to see the rest of the part number.
The #10130 is Fords root number, for a pulley, but the prefix will either identify it as from a standard vehicle or as a special lynx part.
Can you supply the whole number for interests sake?

Pulley arrived in todays mail. Only posted yesterday and we live 300km from Melbourne.

Thank you Tony, thank you Australia Post.(Posted at 9.00 in Paynesville 6.30am next day.)

12Volt Ford Generator is now fully rebuilt with new bearings ($6.00 each) and brushes.

Pulley was perfect and cleaned up well. but I had to refer to the parts book to get the bits in the right order. Must be getting old.

Regards Rick
