My M38A1 didn't come w/ the water proof plug wires and WP distributor. It does have the metal shields where the wiring connects to one another. Would that mean I wouldn't have the ventilation system for crankcase, transmission, TC, valve cover and brake system? Also the vacuum for the...

That eases my mind..Thank you!

So as long as the wires fit, there is no problem with them having 90 degree bends on each end of the wires?

I bought them from Surplus Army Warehouse and he told me he was sure three would work but thought the 4th might be short...back plug. All 4 fit though....very little slack. He told me I could buy 0ne or as many as I liked and could return one or as many that I didn't want. Real good people to...

OH OH thanks for letting me know. They were for M38 but were suppose to work on the M38A1 also. Does the change of angle cause problems with the sparks performance? Thanks

WP plugwires I ordered some water proof spark plug wires and the rubber cover stops about 1 1/2" from the 90 degree ends. The braided steel is exposed from there. Will they still be water proof? They are NOS. Thanks

Thank you...that is good advice. It sure easy to get carried away with an idea.

The Early Cj 5 site mentioned those same items. My generator is still on but has a partial broken base. I would like to do the WP distributor, plug wires and snorkel for now and see what I gain from that The Early CJ 5 site mentioned several ways to do what I'm trying to accomplish. I may even...

Tell me if I am thinking straight...I've had one of my jeeps sitting in the garage and the distributor and coil have been saturated with condensation and would not start until I wiped them down, blew compressed air on them and still have to wait for them to dry before I could crank up. I'm...

Is there a picture that shows how the original ventilation system looks? I want to put a snorkel on it also...is there picture of how it is assembled? Thanks

Someone mentioned I could get water proof distributor and spark plugs wires from some outlet that sells them for generators. Does any one know where I can find them?

I wasn't sure....Thanks

Would a 6 volt coil work with the waterproof dizzy in the M38A1?

I might be able to buy NOS for one...it will be a long shot but worth checking out. The one in my '48' might be one if its any good.

I have a '48' that has the water proof distributor and the coil in under the dash on pass. side. Is there a 12 V coil that can be used and would it have to have a resistor built into the coil? Thanks

My M38 A-1 has been converted to 12V w/o waterproof distributor. If I add the waterproof distributor do I have to convert it back to a 24 V system? (I have the early model type made in Jan. '53.') If not how do I set it up? Thanks
