I never would have guessed the pump would have been the issue. It ran fine for quite a while. I had the fuel lines off to time it and kept cranking to see if there was spark and had nothing. I decided I was tired of the little fuel spitting every time my dad turned the key on so I disconnected...

A banger but I have 2 strombergs on it.

Ok. I figured it out. It had been a while of tinkering when I had time and the answer was so simple. The fuel pump I had wired in to the acc. Port on the key switch and it was keeping it from sparking. Why I have no idea but it did. It worked fine for a couple months and then decided it wasn't...

Ok. I am getting somewhere I guess. If I open and close the points by hand I will get spark on occasion but I noticed when I do get spark that the spark at the points is greater also. Mean anything to anyone?

I did the points and condensor before the problem. I just now tried all new parts and its still the same but when I put a delco 12 v coil in I had spark from the coil lead for a couple times of the points opening

I did all the parts swap before it died and wouldn't re start except I changed the coil and ignition after the problem. Steve at Bert's suggested this swap. I did change the cap rotor and wires after the problem also. I am going to try a condensor now and see if by chance that is the problem...

Looking for some help because I am truly stumped. I was driving my banger A one day and it just shut off like you turned the key off. I checked for spark and had none. I have since put in points, condenser, coil, cap, rotor, plug wires, plugs and an ignition switch. I have been through all the...

I have a set in my 48 and they seem to be working well. Temps went down and they've been doing good for over a year now

Any advice on what rods to use? AER or Scniders? I like the price of Scniders but what's the experience with them?

Any contact info?

I did talk with Bert's machinest. He is in fact the reason I am giving the banger one last go before I make the ole girl an AV8. He showed me that people make some nice parts and I don't have to be stuck with poured babbit. He suggested a shop to call in the Denver area but I can't remember what...

Hello! I have done quite a few searches but can't seem to find the information I have been looking for. I have a 29 Tudor that I finished three years ago. I will be honest and say I think I ran it a bit too hard for the babbit. It has a knock and the rear bearing is leaking like crazy. I have...

I am looking for a 32 v8 radiator. I want an older one and will have it re-cored. Thank you

the pulley must have cracked sometime when the engine was put in. I have just taken the car out on its maden voyage and i noticed the ammeter reading discharge so i looked and it broke off from the spokes. Can they be replaced with the engine bolted in?

Has anyone broke a crank pulley? I had one break last night. It broke around the belt area on the three ears from the crank snout. What causes this?
