yes.

HI, I have a 1930 ford roadster and my cousin one from 1931.

...

thanks for your comments. I also try not to overthink it :) but I have 3 flatheads and all 3 of them don't smoke. So it would be nice if this one doesn't smoke either. I checked the valves. These all go up and down ... below the compression test. But if the engine needed a ring job then the...

Thank you! I'm not worried about it.... but prefer not to have the engine smoke. even if I want to sell the car. and the engine is not in the car yet so if it is easy to fix, I prefer to do this.

Hi, I bought a flathead engine for my 35 Ford. According to the previous owner, the engine is perfect. The engine is running. But smokes when I let go of the gas. Idle is good and when I accelerate it is also good but when I let go of the throttle it smokes a little bit. In a modern engine I...

@ mac they dont no wich mat fits a 41 convertible... has anyone ever ordered a mat from Mac?

thanks for the reply. I need some more parts from a 41 convertible. That's why I wanted to order everything from Mac. Unfortunately I have been busy for 2 months to order the parts, is this always such a bad company!?? I live in the Netherlands, so I don't know who else I can order the parts...

hey guys! Small question. Which of the following fits in a 41 convertible? https://www.macsautoparts.com/trunk-mat-black-rubber-ford-mercury-sedan-32-64394-1.html https://www.macsautoparts.com/trunk-mat-black-rubber-ford-mercury-coupe-32-64393-1.html Thanks.

we're getting a little closer. I currently have 3 holley 94 carburettors. -an old loose one that was on the shelf. (the engine will not run properly on this one) -an completely brand new one (the engine will not run properly on this one) -a used one of a 40er v8. (with Ford logo) (with this...

I just tried. That make things a little better.

the car drives well indeed. if driven slowly or accelerating gently. tried all 3 holes. no improvement unfortunately.

yes i did a compression test. I forgot to mention in my previous comment. Compression is between 70 and 110 psi. (cold) I understand your reaction that I don't know 100% that the ignition is perfect. But if one block runs well and the other continues to experience exactly the same problems, you...

just an update on this side of the ocean. Thank you all for thinking along. Good idea rock fla, but I want to try it myself first, if I can't I can send it indeed. Terry, it is indeed a 94 I think. I did the following today. I was allowed to borrow parts from someone with a well-running 1940...
