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

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 .

   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.
