5/16-24 Whistle
« on: July 27, 2026, 09:43:21 pm »
Hi,

I recently acquired a Jensen that is missing the whistle.  I'd like some variety so instead of just buying a replacement from Jensen which will sound like the half-dozen I already have, I was wondering if someone is aware of a different whistle I could order somewhere?  The threading is 5/16-24.

Not many other fittings match Jensen threads, but an adaptor can always be found or made.

Yes, make an adapter and put a PM Research whistle on there!

Can’t remember if I’ve asked you, but being you’re only an hour away, do you display at any threshing shows? Do you know about our annual model/toy show in an Iowa? (usually in March)
