Re: 47 6-Cylinder Choke and Throttle Cable Ends

Ken...what you described is the way I will have to go. Thanks for the info. With only the 6 cylinders using the "cable" I'm not surprised the ends aren't available. Adapt and overcome as they say!

Re: 47 Ignition Resistor

Thank you to all of you for answering! The truck is 6 volt with the original style coil. I think I may try a can style coil. I have one on another truck I can swap in. Thanks again.

Good afternoon,

Does anyone know how the oil filler pipe on a G-series 6 cylinder is attached to the block. Pressed, welded, or threaded?
