Engine: 3 in 1 - Water Pump, Oil Pump and Distributor
"Here we have an usual accessory. This unit was called a 3 in 1 unit made in St. Louis. The unit is a combination distributor, water pump and oil pump. The unit is gear driven off the camshaft and replaces the stock timing gear cover. This is for cars with generator engines. The unit is complete less the bell crank to advance and retard the timing on the distributor. The units were made in three variations as far as I know. They were made with a timer elevator for use with the stock ignition system, with a manual advance distributor, and with a centrifugal advance distributor. This unit has the centrifugal advance distributor."
