Quote:Does that plastic part serve any useful function other than cosmetic? Most of my Zeniths are '38 and earlier and they don't use a plastic piece like that. I do have one that is early 40's so tomorrow I'll try to find the chassis and see if it uses that piece.


Eliot, it does serve a purpose, it helps the belt get traction on the flywheel shaft so that it can turn the tuning capacitor shaft without slipping.
