CMP (Ford) Instrument Faces Reproductions

Hanno,

There is not much information in the winter report about the Autopulse but this is what I have found:

"PART VI - RESULTS

4. OPERATING

4.6 Miscellaneous Items

4.6.1 Auxiliary Electric Fuel Pumps

These were found to be of considerable assistance, particularly after draining of fuel filters, cleaning of carburetor or replacement or repair of fuel lines, due to the fact that the entire carburetor filter and pipelines can be refilled with fuel without using engine starter as a means of actuating the fuel pump. It is believed that they also assist in starting the vehicle engine at all temperatures due to the fact that they maintain fuel at proper level in the carburetor at all times wheter or not the engine is operating."

"Part VIII - RECOMMENDATIONS

3. CHEVROLET C.M.P. VEHICLES

3.9 That an autopulse pump be installed in series with main fuel pump or alternatively an accessible main fuel pump manual operatng device be fitted.

22. AUXILIARY ELECTRIC FUEL PUMPS

22.1 That these be considered a requirement on gasoline engined vehicles."

I attach a picture of the vehicles participating in the test

Excuse me - I was bumping your thread which might help in increasing sales, courtesy of MLU. Anyway, I moved it to its own thread as they are for Chevrolets anyway.

Which reminds me, have you managed to make proper Ford 3 Switch Plates with the script "Autopulse" underneath the middle switch hole? As you know this is the only difference between Chevrolet and Ford switch plates.
