The following cross reference of detail service parts from Auto-Lite to Johnson, and
vice-versa, is used to determine part numbers in the same manner as parts catalogs are
used. Simply locate the part in the exploded illustration contained on page 2, note the
detail photo number, and refer to the same number on the following pages for the desired
Johnson and corresponding Auto-Lite part numbers. Columnar headings are self-explanatory
and should present no problem in understanding them.
In all instances of determining detail part numbers, it will be advantageous and time-
saving to predetermine the Auto-Lite model number in order that the correct detail part
may be accurately chosen. The Auto-Lite model numbers are stamped on the frame and
can be readily obtained from it.
Prices of the detail Johnson parts, or superseding part numbers, will be found in the
extreme right hand column. All prices listed are current, but are subject to change
without notice.
Except as otherwise indicated, dealers order all parts by the Johnson number only from
your parts distributor. Do not order from the factory or the parts depot.
