M41 Walker Bulldog pony motor
Hello Guys,
I am trying to find a Ordnance maintenance manual TM 9-1730F for the auxiliary generator out of a M41 Tank. The details I have are Make= GM Detroit Diesel (petrol) Model= A-41-1 or A141-2 Voltage= 27.5v Amperage= 300 I think the TM number is correct but it could be TM 9-1739F/TO 19-45-133. I need any info that I can get on this particular gen set as I am about to restore one, and the torque settings and valve clearances would be very helpful. I will try to find out more details off the data plate as the engine is not with me at the moment. Thanks, Brent Delaney. |

There are two resouces that you can try for that TM
CMH Center for Military History ( USA) US. Nation Archives both are on line and are outstanding sources. I recommend you try the later first.If you dont find anything me and I'll hunt some more down Patrick PS Do you have a Walker?? some Pictures wold be nice |

Gidday Pony soldier,
Thanks for the reply, I will have a looksee at those sites and get back to ya. We do have a 41 but its a bit sick at the moment, 2006 should see a concentrated effort at getting it home. I have a photo somewhere, but I will have to dig it out. I'm flat out scraping paint off the house. :( Have a good new year and :cheers: :drunk: Thanks, Brent Delaney. |

Great Pictures

Great pictures. Looks like you have you hands full restoring this one. You dont happen to have the breech assembly for the main gun do you?? Patrick |
Gidday Patrick,
Yes there is a breech block available for it, there is approx 80-85% nos parts that come with the deal so its not all bad sailing. Paying for the running costs by the time we get it going, well now thats a different story :( Cheers, Brent D. |

Do you know if the gen set is the same as the gen set in the M5A1..If so I have the manual TM 9 1727 F which has the gen set specs in it..Give me what details you can and I'll check the manual and see if it may not be the same set.. |
5 years on - What is the Bulldog like now?
