Quote from: Bob Gaines on May 12, 2019, 11:54:53 PMI have taken apart a lot of these solenoids and there is typically a paper type gasket between the bottom cover and the body . More a labor of love given it takes a considerable amount of time effort and material to refurbish one.Thanks Bob, I thought they where near impossible to rebuild. I’ll keep my eye out for one Cheers

Bob,I am looking at 3 brown / grained solenoids right now.They all have the large RBM lettersThey all have fomoco in the oval circle.But;They have this part number FDR-11450-AThis part number is located where the part numbers are on the solenoids shown herein.They are otherwise identical.What gives?John
Bob,All three have the dual small posts up front.There is a 4th one that has a single post, same lettering and numbers,BUT, it has the fomoco in a rectangular box, rather than the oval circle.

Even earlier version has a button on the bottom that you could use to manually active the solenoid rather than jumping the posts. Really handy. Have one on my 40 Ford One of the applications for the ones marked "FDR-11450-A" with the dual small posts is mid 50's Fords
