michael.warshaw Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 i have seen these on 1940 plymouths, but iwould it be correct for p15? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1939-1947-Dodge-Pickup-Panel-Truck-Spark-Plug-Wire-Loom-/400189618076?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5d2d28f79c Quote
deathbound Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 I don't know the answer to your question, but can anyone tell me if it comes apart to install the plug wires or do you have to run the plug wires through it, then install the ends/boots? Quote

Not used on P15 Plymouth's 1946-1948 source "Revised Condensed Master parts list D-12678" Interesting. The one in the photo looks identical to the one on my 1933 which uses part #600829. Looking at the 1936-48 parts book, the illustration looks the same as my car. Cars used #600829 through 1939. I wonder what the difference is between the 1933-39 version and the 1940-42 version with part #693915. Looks like the trucks used the older number after the cars changed. Quote

I saw the two different part #'s this AM when I researched the part #. Trucks continued to use the older style. I have both styles and can look at the differences. It's just too cold right now to spend a lot of time searching through a barn. My guess......the difference is underneath and differs only in the mount or mounting hole. Just a guess. glad to see you share a similar interest in the small nuances of parts for our old Plymouth's and Dodges. thanks Quote
greg g Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 I believe the change was engendered with regard to the coil locaton and style. Seems the P15 (maybe the 42) introduced the combined loom and coil mount, where as the earlier cars had the through the firewall coil mount. Quote
Roadkingcoupe Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 What I like about the "wire loom" is that I never have a problem figuring out which wire goes where.....because the loom holds the wires in the proper firing order. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 the ole clam shell does make for a neater less cluttered looking engine bay.. Quote

Roadkingcoupe Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Here are two photos of the wire loom. First picture shows the proper loom for a "Spitfire" motor off a 41 Chrysler (might also be used for 46-48?). At the bottom of the first picture are two (of 7 that I have) and they are barely noticeably different. In the second photo the mounting "tab" is just slightly longer than the other. That is all I can tell is different. Go figure.... Quote

pawpawpatch Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 My 46 P15 doesnt have the clamshell type, it just has 2 tubes 1 for the front 3 cyl. wires and 1 for the back 3 to go through. Quote
Alshere59 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Same here pawpawpatch. Now if someone wants to sell the clam shell type for a fair price I would be inclined to change. Quote
