Just picked up an exhaust whistle with adaptor for my Model A. Doesn't sound quite right so I checked each tube with the air gun. The 2 deepest notes don't toot so well, any one got tips on how to check the alignment?

Re: Tuning an Aermore
Thanks, that post was helpful. I think mine is also a Lucas repro, certainly that's the name on the valve assembly. Looks like it needs some work.

Re: Tuning an Aermore
Here is an ad from when Fulton was making them and another Forum post with more info.

I got an Email from Stan Lucas asking me if I was the artist who helped him with his Lucas Logo. It showed a cartoon character driving a car with his Lucas whistle blowing. I wasn't the fellow but reminded him we knew each other from steam car tours. He had given my wife a ride in his Doble. I can't find the cartoon yet but maybe later. Or someone else will find it.

Re: Tuning an Aermore
Low and behold, here is the cartoon that appeared with the whistle ads in his tire ads.
A wolf whistle rather than the 4 tube version he was also selling.
It was done by a Dan Eagle.A wolf whistle rather than the 4 tube version he was also selling.
