WTB blackout light

Looking for the 4 1/2 inch auto light blackout light for the front of my m37. Or if anybody knows a trick to modify the existing housing to accept a new bulb (24 volt) that would be great.

truck running with sluggish mid range rpm

I got my m37 running the other day after having trouble getting it started. Took it for a drive some city and some highway. I have to feather the throttle on take off and she sounds great on high rpm. When traveling down the highway it's a dog but as the rpm and speed increase you can feel the power...

Re: won't start need help

Mine will swivel (spin) almost a quarter of an inch. I have to make sure every thing is locked down and set the point ...

Re: won't start need help

took it all apart and and had a good look at the points. I am thinking they are the culprit as they are oily and there is not much contact area one side and the contact area on the other is not there. Thanks cuz, i had found the original post with that exact diagram and that is what i went by. I typ...

Re: won't start need help

all components were the same. The spring is attached to the cap. I changed out to a new cap that i had laying around and i still don't have fire. The rotor had some paint on the edge of it and it was not burnt so i am thinking that IF the coil is sending fire to the rotor he rotor may not be passing...
