WTB - Parts for Corcoran carbide generator. For 1914 T. (Parts needed shown in picture)
(Bottom picture is not mine, just to help show what I need. Other two pictures are of my actual car and carbide generator.) I’m looking for the brass nut on top with brass clip under it. Also looking for the little lever that tightens/holds the top water tank portion of the generator on. Also looking for correct internal baskets.

Would one end off a brass coupler fit that joins two lines together. Just a thought.

I hadn’t thought of that, I could try it.

More likely a shut off pack nut for a valve. BUT check the thread, maybe non standard. You should list the brand in the title, there were several different makers so they are not all the same. Besides, showing the name might jump out more to viewers.

I’ll have to get over to where it’s stored for the winter and take a picture of it. Pretty sure it’s identical to the one in the picture but I’m not 100%. Is the name visible on the generator. I’m fairly new to model t’s, especially gas light T’s.

When you get over to look at it take some photos and post. If not sure what brand post on the forum after you get the photos. You can click on the edit(pencil) and change the photos if not the same.
