Delco Distributors-Tune- Up Kits

Most of you "old timers" who have been collecting, restoring tractors for a while probably know this and will find it boring. I am posting this with the new guys in mind.

While going through one of my parts catalogs, I find that many of the Delco Distributors, regardless of what make of tractor, use the same turn-up kits.

For instance: I need a Delco tune-up kit for my WC Allis Chalmers. I have no A-C dealer in my neighborhood, so I just go to my John Deere dealer and get a kit for the "A" John Deere. Or I can go to my Case-International dealer and get a kit for a "M" Farmall. The kits are the same.

These kits fit many Farmalls, many John Deere, many Allis-Chalmers, some Case, some Ferguson, some Massey Ferguson, some Oliver, some Avery, some Cockshutt, a few MM.

The kits are the same. Just thought I would point this out for anyone who has not already discovered this. It might make Delco parts a little easier to find locally.
 
If you ask for a kit for a M Farmall you will most likely get the wrong parts unless you specify that you have a Delco distributor. I think that you will find the IH distributor is more common on those tractors.
 
Yes it's true. My brother found this out last summer when he needed a kit for his H Farmall with a Delco dist. Got the kit for A John Deere from NAPA, they were out of stock for the red H.
 
"Pappy" with the big bucks...

What do you need a "kit" for?

Determine the NAPA, Standard Ignition or Blue Streak numbers for the points you need and ANY auto parts store can fix you right up.

Condensers RARELY fail, and with the quality of today's parts, unless you have reason to believe you have suffered the RARE event of condenser failure you're better off to save your money and leave a "field-tested" condenser in place.
