Thanks for details. I am visual guy and written text is harder for me to understand, that's why I like videos and pictures. Wil get on the project in few days and see how it will go.

I have seen the $30 adjusting hammers and I have seen video, where the guy has about $3000 invested in 3 buzz testers, where he says he is using all 3 for full test as they offer different features. I still like the guy on the video, who claims to have results with $3 screwdriver. Too bad he is...

The video link is in starting post. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcyDmgFppGI At 1:45 it shows adjusting lower point, but I don't see what set he is going for?

Tar is secondary issue in my rebuild. Anybody can answer my question in #3 ?

Tar roofs don't exist in Las Vegas. At black surface reaching 200F, they would drip.

Where can I buy tar?

Old topic, but right in time for me. Than what is 6 years old, comparing to the age of our cars? Anyway, I am rebuilding some coils with new condenser, have the continuity test done and am ready for final adjustment. What I don't get -what are the criteria for adjusting point tension (1:45 on...

90 seconds for perfect score. Had to guess the cover.

I did buy the manual shortly after buying the T, but I am 1 of those "know it all" guys and reading manual is at the bottom of my list. Exception are digital manuals, as I am taking laptop to my Whirlpool and spending 1 hr in it, have lot of time to read. Paper and Whirlpool don't work well...

Do you have a link? I searched right and left and could not find it.

I've been thinking about using parking brake for vehicle stopping, especially since I have new, lined brake shoes, but the level goes pretty low under dashboard and it is hard to reach during driving. Anybody tired that? I know nothing about other T owners in Las Vegas, but I am pretty...

It is not much car traffic as stop lights. I drive the T 10 miles on Sundays to church. I think I have about 100 stop lights on the route and when they change to red 50 ft in front of me, I have to use brakes hard. I know how to predict traffic, but it all has its limit. So I understand that...

Found youtube video about adjusting gear band, but no brake. Is brake the other band under the cover? What it takes to replace?

I drive in city traffic, so side mirrors are a must. Bought chromed last years, but that was disaster. Not only small mirror, on short arm, but with the vibration they have been coming apart and I lost one on the road. Than lately I bought those and they seem to be perfect fit. I did not want...

1922 model T and forum search found lot about clutch bands adjustment, but nothing about brake band work. I drove my T less than 100 miles since the purchase, yet seem the brakes are getting weak and the pedal goes closer to the floor. I drive in city traffic so brakes are important. How much...
