Thermostat Housing Numbers
 

Can we list all the housing numbers for our Judges.
I'll start the list with 9097 as a '69 Ram III manual trans.

Are these going to be choke thermostat housing numbers, or coolant outlet thermostat housing numbers ?

Looks like choke number, just clarifying for those of us with impairments. :)

As you can tell BVZ, I'm as impaired as the next guy. To late to change the title though...DW

:ranger: I'm all jacked up on Thera-Flu hot tea stuff. Not sure if I mixed the daytime or nightime packet last time. But the impairment is becoming more obvious, I thought it was Thursday for a while.

What I have on the 1970 choke assys.

All stick cars w/4-bbl. and California emissions 4 bbl. cars should have the 0097.
All RAIV cars should have the 9099.
All auto cars/4bbl., except California emissions, should have the 9098.

Choke thermostat housing numbers:

1969 RAM IV AUTO or STICK 9099(with 8097 crossed out), and 9099 only.
1969 RAM III AUTO ?
1969 RAM III STICK 9097

1970 RAM IV AUTO or STICK 9099
1970 RAM III AUTO 9098(with 9097 crossed out), and 9098 only.
1970 RAM III STICK 0097
1970 455 AUTO or STICK ?

1971 455 HO RAMAIR 1094

Any additions or corrections welcome......DW

My 70 Arlington 4 speed RA lll is 0097.

Here is a little chart:

I believe I ordered a new choke thermostat from Pontiac in 1979 or 1980 because the original choke spring was not keeping the choke completely closed. I have not found the original choke thermostat housing, but I'm still looking. The number stamped on my replacement is 1094 which agrees to the choke stamped number for a 7028273 carb in this chart. Is the correct Ram Air III manual 7028273 choke thermostat housing stamped 1094, or is it 9097 as stated below?

If 9097 is correct, why does this chart show 1094? (Would I have put the wrong part number on my car back then? I'm having trouble remembering if I was as anal at 19 as I am at 48!)

My '69 judge with an 8273 carb has a 9097, and it hadn't been touched until I rubbed my finger accross it.
Read the very bottom of that chart..DW

I think 9097 is the standard 4bbl choke spring. I've got a few of them and they definitely didn't come off of RA cars. Both intakes they were off of were mid to late 68 date codes

"definitely didn't come off of RA cars", come on. You want to see a couple pictures of the top of my engine on my Baltimore built '69 stick RAM III judge with a 8273 on it?
That chart doesn't differentiate between RAM III or RAMIV either.
Doesn't state that a 8273 was used on a '69 either.
Nor does it list any of the factory crossed out, restamped numbers....DW

Dr Doug, you're taking my statement wrong!! re-read my post, I'm saying MINE didn't come off RA cars, not yours! so maybe both RA and non RA used the same housing

I had not read that last night so the 1094 is probably a service replacement. I'll have to search some more for the original and look for a correct one.
