Re: 34 Coil Carbon Brush
You should run a little hand reamer in the hole in the coil
to clean the hole and and round it up so the brush makes
good contact and slides nice. G.M.

Re: 37-39 Water Pumps
Run the pumps for a 1/2 hour with some water pump lubricant. While
running at a fast idle take a small piece of wood and move the pulley
forward and push it back against the seal. G.M.
