Went back to field where I found old Plated London button, looked for more old relics, canslaw, maybe a grommet, and a bell?? Even the grommet is not really like a grommet(seems old,?) old grommet?

Holy cow! That piece with holes looks like, if I'm not mistaken, a kinuter valve from a Model G piston sled (Internal-firing). This is the part that would have connected to the bottom of the slipper bolt, allowing for the transfiguration of metastatic fuel consumption at low temperatures.

Or, it could just be a piece of old metal.

This is one of the most AWSOME posts I have ever read! LOL

Congratulations on making me laugh!
 
I worked behind an auto parts counter for 15 yrs and that is the best description I have ever heard. Love it...lol
 
The Canuter valve is a part of the exhaust regeneration assembly on new diesel engines. The canuter valve usually fails due to overheating of the exhaust bearings.

Over use of this valve is caused by faulty frigate switch wiring. When this happens, the muffler bearings become hot and can seize. Eventually, the catalytic converter fluid will become tainted with halogen bulb fluid due to canuter valve blow-by.

Always thought this was common sense knowledge ...:dontknow:

Stop, Ha ...Ha...Ha...Please Stop..Oh, my stomach hurts! Ha, Ha, Ha, Stop!!! Ha, Ha, Ha...

I couldn't find one that looked like it, but I wondered if it could've been a part off an oil lamp?
Is it made of brass?

brass and still a part of a bell
 
I agree it looks like the piece the wick goes in on an oil lamp. But just guessing.

If it was a Canuter valve (pronounced kinuter valve) wouldn't it have a flapper plate and a self-oiler or grease fitting?

Here I thought it wad a squirrel helmet with strap holes!!!!! Ya never know keep posting and keep hunting: -)
 
This was found not far from the kinuter valve, it was what I was calling a grommet. Both pieces are brass.

 
One or more of you gearheads have way too much spare time on your hands! Loved every word of it.

THANKS!

HI BOB!
 
Not really sure about a self oiler but it is widely known that a detonation flame arrester device including a left and right housing assembly containing two flapper plates positioned one in either side of the housing assembly and separated by a channeled barrier in the form of a stacked plate flame arrester designed to allow vapor passage under normal non-activated conditions. The flapper plates are positioned at an angle to be forced shut in advance of a detonation or deflagration wave coming from either direction and propagating through a piping system. The flapper plate is activated by the action of the pressure front on the flapper plate, and each plate is of a size and shape to cover the entire cross sectional area of the housing assembly. The flapper plates can optionally be slammed shut by torsion springs activated through alternate activation devices. Alternate activation devices include: fusible links which would release the torsion spring and shut the flapper plate upon exposure to excessive heat; flotation release devices which would activate the torsion spring and shut the flapper plate upon presence of sufficient liquid within the housing assembly; and external movement activation devices which would swivel float weight releasing torsion springs and activating flapper plates. Activation of either or both plates can be detected by an activation indicator connected to appropriate alarms and/or safety shutdown mechanisms of the protected piping system.

right,,,,the kunnthare valves from lamps do have flaps

obviously I wasn't looking hard enough
 
It's clearly a question extractor, they're easy to spot. :-)
 
We always but reversing switches on our flame arrestors. That way the flames could always turned back into a flammable gas for proper lubrication of the friction burners.
