Problem is Paul, those companies list every NSN available. Stock very often does not exist. I will keep an eye on ebay, as well as ask on the G503 when the time comes. Right now I am busy getting stuff stowed away before the snow flies.

Thanks for the photos from the parts manual Colin. They will be a great help. I do have to remember that the 361 in those photos, and the 318 are different engines. I researched the spark plugs shown in that manual, but they do not appear to be the correct shielded plug for the 318. Unfortunately, I do not have the parts manual for the RAM, but as I read through the maintenance manual and the failure reports, I'm sure the info will show up.

Attached is a photo of the carb for Bob.

I checked on some 16.00 - 20 tires today and they are 52" in height. I measured quickly and they are 10" larger than the existing 14.00-20 tires, and I do not think they will fit in the wheel wells. I guess the search for an appropriate tire will continue. I can also assemble a set of the 9.00x20 tires and save myself a high climb.
