Engine stands can have different sized tubes were the adaptor fits into, so make sure yours is the same size as the adaptor you get.

Hi Trent,
I did call Lang's to check stock and the lady said they were out since 2021 so might be a long wait. But I appreciate the suggestion. Thank you.

Check with Snyders. The Model A, B and T uses the same adapter.

They are on backorder at the manufacturer and have been for some time. The parts vendors don’t have any.

If you decide to make an adapter plate make the pipe long enough to extend through the engine stand pipe mount so you can turn the engine with a handle or to assist in turning the engine. It does help!

Yes, I need to get out to my shed, dig it out. I think it has a part number on the box, I can do that tomorrow afternoon. You can use
gwh247@yahoo.com. My email
gwh1247@yahoo.com which is the one from this site is having password issues on my new laptop, so I am not checking that as often. George
