1949 Wraith Posted July 5, 2016 Report Posted July 5, 2016 I am placing an order to Rock Auto and hope to order the exhaust and intake gaskets for my1949 Canadian Dodge Special Deluxe( D32) which is basically a Plymouth P18 with the Canadian long block 218ci engine. When ordering these parts can I use the American Desoto S13 gaskets? My distributor Is a Chrysler Corp of Canada unit, part #1233565, Auto-Lite AP-4102-1. If anyone can point me to the correct, cap, points and rotor I would appreciate it, especially if there is an American equivalent. Thanks for your help. Regards, Nick Quote
Don Coatney Posted July 5, 2016 Report Posted July 5, 2016 There are many Canadian participants on this forum. Hopefully some of them will chime in and offer some help. Quote
Jerry Roberts Posted July 7, 2016 Report Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Welcome to the group . You missed a letter in your distributor model number . it is IAP-4102-1 . For the D30 , D31 , D32 ( Canada ) . The Auto Lite part numbers are ; cap IAO 1003 , rotor IGS 1016B , contact set ( points ) IGP 3028 ES , condenser IG 3927G . Ebay is a good place to search for Auto-Lite ignition parts . I like the old NOS parts better than the new replacements from China . If you want to order the new replacements just give your distributor model number to Roberts Motor Parts or Andy Bernbaum Auto parts . Perhaps NAPA Auto Parts too . If you should need other part numbers for your distributor just let me know . On the manifold gaskets , PROBABLY that Desoto gaskets are what you need , but I could be wrong on that .

9 foot box Posted March 7, 2023 Report Posted March 7, 2023 I had to replace the fuel pump on my 47 WD21. I dressed and set the point gap, cause it wasn’t firing like it should. It started and I backed it out of the driveway. It wouldn’t start the next day and the points were grounded. I had an old blister package from Gambles or Coast to Coast that had the same style points. I put the points in and the engine fired right up. It started good again this afternoon @ 24 degrees, without being plugged in. Because my truck has a 49 Chrysler Spitfire engine, it has a IAP-4102C-1 distributor. I ordered two sets of Autolite IGP-3028ES points Saturday and got them today. The old points are stamped Varoom. Now I’m searching for an Autolite catalog to get the correct cap for some other distributors that I have. Thanks for the old post. Rick D. 1 Quote
D35 Torpedo Posted March 10, 2023 Report Posted March 10, 2023 I got my last set of points and condenser from napa. Quote
