  1. Believe it or not there were a few in the Department that wanted to get rid of it but that idea was shot down in a hurry. The truck has been in our town since brand new. The sales man was delivering it(New York Plant) during a snow storm and wrecked it. Needed to go back for a whole front end and they also put a larger "bus engine" in it (brand new at the time). The truck still runs good, drives and pumps water. We do use it for parades and funeral detail. There are two sets of plugs for every cylinder but right now its only firing off the distributor. Gonna look into the Mag and start there.
  2. Our Department has a 1938 Fire engine that we are trying to figure out the engine spec's in. We are having magnito problems and would like to get some info if possible. Truck is in great shape, fully functionable. We just want to do more with it. Anyone that can give us some insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.
  3. We have a 1938 Mack Fire Engine with a gas engine. Numbers on the head are- 1CF3147 117 5/6/37. We are having some magneto issues with the truck and would like to get some engine spec's to start looking. The problem is when the truck was delivered brand new, the sales man wrecked in route to our town during a snow storm. They replaced the front end including the engine and put a larger "bus" engine in it. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks
