Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
Below each oiler hole, below the shaft, are 2 bulges.
I think someone indicated there's an oil saturated wick inside each bulge? #1 question... is there some passageway for freshly applied oil to reach this wick...or is this an early forerunner of permanent/one time lubrication? #2 another thing... of my shamefully small stash of only 6 throttle assemblies, two have the flat bottom. Quite a few more pics have surfaced with this flat bottom unit...suggesting there must be thousands of them out there. Is there some logical reason they didn't illustrate the flat bottom unit in the judging standards? .....Or....could it be the 2 dead guys responsible for the #2 ribbed assembly pic. actually meant to put in a flat bottom pic? |

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
This is a "work in progress" for sure! It has taken a few unexpected turns. Keep in mind I had NO familiarity with the earlier versions (as I had no need) until Rusty opened this can of worms . Just kidding Rusty. I saw details presented in a few photos that provided necessary details to build on.

Dudley cleaned and tore his down providing photos and saying the wick was BELOW the shaft but his didn't have an oil cup. His description along with the pic showing the bulges made me see them as bored oil wells. Quote:

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
These threads disappear much too quickly. I had to look at the bottom of page 4 for this one. I was looking through the Service Bulletins to see what was pictured for throttle linkage and the first one is one page 337 (April, 1929) and shows the third style listed in the Judging Standards.
There is an original June 1928 Tudor in our club and I'll have to check it out the next time I get a chance, to see which style linkage it has. |

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
Under "Engineering Information"....for the "Throttle Assembly", I have at least one
or two questions.. Dates, 10-24-1927 and 12-10-1927...that should be Type 1 Date, 6-12-28 is the next date...is that a Type 2? Dates, 9-12-28 and 10-16-28 follow...next or revised Types? Is "Engineering Information", new prints, revisions, tooling or machining change,foundry change...or just a note/letter? |

It appears you're looking at the assembly drawings only which I suspect some are missing including one dated 4/5/28. There are at least 149 different related drawings on file and 15 of the bracket alone. Without looking at them and/or the engineering releases it tough to determine much definitively. Some change can be as minor as the notation changing the spec on heat treatment. Others can be changing the +/- tolerance on a hole size or radius. Finally, it's possible the 6/12/28 date you mentioned is simply a "catch-up" on the records including a change in the bracket itself which was recorded 5/8/28, except I'd really expect it to carry the corresponding engineering release number which it doesn't. I hope to be able to post some things in a couple days (when the rain hits) that will help or prompt folks to look at there cars for some real life feedback.

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
Ya..well I thought 21 "lines" was a little short! I didn't think they would have had
there " poop in a neat pile",....there would have had more prints/revisions Guess I'm looking in the wrong place? |

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
I just checked my stash and can find none of the second ribbed style of throttle assembly. I have one of the early square ribbed style, and the rest later ones, like everyone else. Rod is right. Someone from JS needs to show us a real life example of the second ribbed style. mike

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
Well...for the 3rd year in a row, I looked at the Turlock swap-meet(about 40 acres worth), for the 2nd style. Slim Pickens....and I don't mean the actor, looked at about
60-70 assembles. Any news or update? |

Re: Second version of the throttle assembly
WOW...That was some reading and excellent research by all involved on the throttle assembly.
So it has been 5-6 years now since this post/thread has appeared, what then has changed in the timeline of these assemblies date wise? If #2 in the Standards is out (I presume it is) then #3 becomes #2 with a starting date of June 1928 with or without oil cups? Has the Judging Standards committee's (MARC and MAFCA) addressed this subject? OR has it gone by the wayside? Yes they changed the Standards...See the 2016 Revision! Thanks.
