New to forum from Boulder USA Past Owner of 74 & 76 Gordini

Hello Steve
good 
This is probably the machining of a new plastic ring.

Hello Michel,

Thank you. The ring was actually made with this product in place the inserts (ball that ring surrounds) was held in place and a heavy grease was used on the insert to make sure it did not bind to the jb weld. Some final trimming was used.

Very simple and worked great!

Hello dear friends,

As we continue to diagnosis my 1975 R17 Gordini, we have found that the vacuum diaphragm (in French Capsule a Depression) on the distributor no longer works.

I have included a picture of the part in the Renault Microfish reader

The part number I am looking for is 77 01 018 852

The distributor part number is 77 00 615 679

I will also include a picture of the side of the distributor with the Ducellier part numbers shown.

On the distributor is

R258D63

The number beneath it is

4549A

When I see other Ducellier Vacuum Diaphragms online it is the last part number that cross references to what looks like a Ducellier cross reference which can be found online.

An example is

https://www.ebay.fr/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=Ducellier+60886&_sacat=0

I know this is not clear but I am looking for what I believe is a Ducellier Vacuum Diaphragm for this part number 4549A.

I truly need this part or a close substitute for my car to work good.

Here is my very big request. I have looked over the entire internet and I cannot cross reference this vaccuum diaphragm to a Ducellier part number.

I am thinking that one of my Amicale friends might have some information that can cross

Thank you my friends.

Steve

Unfortunatly, I didn't have information about vacuum diaphragm

Thank you for the birthday wishes Michel and my other dear friends.

I have my 75 back on the road and she drives pretty good.

But feels like a tired dog, compared to my 73.

My 73 feels so alive, it is amazing how strong she runs.

My 75 more like well, we will get there when we get there, I am in no rush.

Thank you again all my dear friends.

You have made me part of the Amicale family, and I very much value this part of my life.

Thank you all, I am sorry I have been absent. Many things pulling at me. I am trying to make more time for my favorite joy, my Renault R17's. Today was a day to take them out, instead we had over 8cm of rain in a few hours. I am glad I changed my mind at the last minute. I hope you are all well!
