  • 1912 Wagner manifold and Schebler

    Reaching out for help from any Wagner enthusiasts, Folks!

    Here we have a 1912 manifold, some minor cosmetic repairs needed, but I am totally blind as to how either end was sealed.

    The smaller carb end is 1"-14 straight thread, sort of, and I suspect it kept the carb indexed with a nut, as suggested by this pic:

    Has anyone any literature or experience, of any seal washer,.. copper, phenolic or otherwise?
    (The Schebler has no flat on its butt to accept a seal.)

    The wide end appears to thread onto the cylinderhead, and secured with a nut upon the same threads. So again, I must ask about the seal beneath..

    If I must make a die and punch copper, somebody else better need some! Thanks in advance,..
