The car runs really well but overheats now and then not full. Blown overheating, but pukes water. I was told I need to adjust my timing as I’m driving as much as I tried it’s not working.

Just wanted to throw it out there to see what everybody thinks about the Nu Rex automatic timing device. Does it work? Is it worth the money? Any advice you could give me would be appreciated. Thank you very much Daba.

Thanks for the info. ��

I’m trying to complete my new interior on my 1930 tutor. The windlace on the door closer to the windshield has a clamp type system to hold the weatherstrip halfway down the door, from there does it go behind the door card or the kick panel? Does anybody have the answer? A photo would be...

Classic rookie mistake I should know better being as this is my seventh Model A, I overfilled the radiator. Took the advice made sure it was below the upper plate and Wala no more problems. Thanks for all of your input really appreciate it. Hopefully someday I can chime in with some advice but...

I recently picked up a 1930 tutor and at idle it’s fine I can drive about a mile and a half and it starts to overheat if I pull over and stop it goes away as soon as I get up to speed it overheats I checked and rechecked the timing many times. I don’t believe it’s timing. I have flush the...

Yes I was given a clean and clear title ? Not sure how someone can get another title in another State without a title to start with.

I did not register it when I bought it because it was a non-runner and needed extensive work after I got it drivable I registered it this year. So the vehicle is currently registered and I drive it however they will not issue me a title??? The motor has been rebuilt and replaced so the motor...

Several years ago I purchased a 1930 model a Ford tutor I was given the title, I have since repaired and registered the vehicle and I am currently driving it ,however I did not receive the title from the registry and it’s been a few months when I called the registry they said they would not...

So should I have a thermostat in it?? None of my other cars have one maybe they should I’m not sure ??

I did take it out for another run and it seems fine now I did take the advice and not overfill it which I tend to do. I did reset the timing but didn’t notice much of a difference and it’s running performance I think I was pretty much spot on before. I did adjust the gav and retarded the timeing...

The motor was rebuilt several years ago and never driven until now so I don’t think it’s a motor problem. I just re-timed it again and took it for a short ride, with my point and go thermometer it said the top of the radiator was 156° and the bottom was 158° It did not overheat that I could...

I put the lever all the way down there was no backfiring but once it overheated there was a definite lack of power. I will recheck the timing this morning. After I recheck the timing I will take it for another ride and possibly not put the lever down so far to see if that helps.

I took my 30 tutor out for a maiden voyage idling in the driveway it does not overheat at all. I took it for a short drive about a mile and a half and on the way home it overheated. I opened the pet **** after the motor cooled and flushed the radiator for about 20 minutes with the car running...

30 Tudor and rebuilt. Thanks
