Title: Buffer switch
Post by: Mike in GA on March 09, 2011, 05:46:36 PM
Havng a rebuilt set of jakes installed on my 8v92 MCI. I need something called a Buffer/high idle/jake switch. Fairly expensive when bought new from Jacobs. Any source for used buffer switches out there?

Mike,

You should give Ray Cox a call. He has some, although I'm not sure he can find them after closing his shop and moving everything to his house. Worth a try, though.

Ray tried to find me the switch, but couldn't lay his hands on one - due to the probems you mention!

Don is the ene who sold me the excellent Jake rebuild kit. 
     I sent him a PM about the Fast Idle Buffer Switch late last night. Thanks for the reminder.
     Was hoping to find a used one....

Mike, I just sent you a pm. I have been out of the shop for the last week or so.

Let me know if you still need one.

Thanks

Don
