Hello Guys,

I am trying to find a Ordnance maintenance manual TM 9-1730F
for the auxiliary generator out of a M41 Tank.

The details I have are

Make= GM Detroit Diesel (petrol)
Model= A-41-1 or A141-2
Voltage= 27.5v
Amperage= 300

I think the TM number is correct but it could be TM 9-1739F/TO 19-45-133.

I need any info that I can get on this particular gen set as I am about to restore one, and the torque settings and valve clearances would be very helpful.

I will try to find out more details off the data plate as the engine is not with me at the moment.

Thanks,

Brent Delaney.

Do you know if the gen set is the same as the gen set in the M5A1..If so I have the manual TM 9 1727 F which has the gen set specs in it..Give me what details you can and I'll check the manual and see if it may not be the same set..

This vehicle is now in Australia and being restored, it arrived in 2017 and restoration begun 2018. The vehicle arrived from NZ in the condition of previous photos minus the track and some suspension components.
