62 - Screw?? - Accelerator ground, coil cap bracket?

[Anthony P.]

Hello,

I am looking at the AIM section 102, sheets 3 and 4 and have the following questions:

1. What screw (size, etc) and washer type is used to hold the ground strap to the accelerator linkage?

AIM indicated: 164352 screw and 446161 (PW) washer, but I am not sure what those are

2. What type of screw (size, etc) and washer is used to hold the coil capacitor to the coil bracket?

AIM indicated: 164352 screw and 138479 washer, but I am not sure what those are

A picture would be helpful also.

Thanks,

Tony

I don't know what they are either. But here's how I got what I believe is a correct coil capacitor screw. I bought a junky Chevy coil bracket on EBay. Threw away the bracket and capacitor. I've also seen used junky accelerator levers on EBay that still have that screw and remnants of the ground strap.

Tony,

- 164352 is used for '57 ground strap on accelerator lever, engine side and on power top relays
- 138479 is used in the package compartment and gas tank cover as well as other places

Check the Corvette Central and Paragon catalogs.
