Apple Cutout

John Buscher

December 29, 2005

John,

Here are my diagrams, wiring for 1917 Stanley and a sketch showing the terminal connections on the bottom of the 
Apple cutout relay. 

The pictures show the version of Apple cutout on my car - just to be sure we are all talking about the same model.

Best Regards,    John Buscher

Custom Engine Frame Rods
by Mike Clark

Hi John,

Here is a picture of the new frame rods I have made for my Stanley Model H engine as referred to on my Steam Gazette posts in the last few days. The engine is now finished and when I have tested it (just got to put it back in the car) I will post some more pictures.

Cheers Mike Clark

Air/Fuel mixer modifications

Rolly Evans made beautiful ones machined out of solid brass.
They're just little trumpet flares that reduce the entrance shock losses.
If you have room, the outer diameter should be at least twice the mixing tube diameter but not crucial. One member went to PEP BOYS and found suitable sizes in their exhaust or manifold section.
