Re: 59 road draft tube

is that a brown recluse spider? if so the most poisonous in the US. holy crap be careful!!!

Hi Robert, sorry so long to get back.....been fighting fires down here in FL.........

This guy was about 4" long! I didn't see the telltale "fiddle" on him. The brown recluse is about 1/4" to 1/2" long according to this.

......unless it's one of those gargantuans that live here in Florida! I've seen some pretty big creatures down here. Either way, I shot him with some gooey insecticide. He ran like hell, so I think he's toast. I'll be looking for him when I get the pressure washer out!

Besides the 56-59 "first design" 3726641 and 59-60 "second design" 3737028 as shown in the 61 Parts Catalog, the AIM shows on Sheet 4.00 Sec 6.0 crankcase vent tube 3737028 with 3749690 OPT. In the revision box it shows "was 3726641-3749684 OPT" with a date of 3-2-59.
It appears that there were at least 4 different versions of the vent tube.
