is there an easy fix ? the light switch on the steering wheel is sticking when i turn the steering wheel it is cutting on and turning off the head lights

ok thanks guys for the response, i looked at the column tube and it is not straight, and i dont think the hand lever is bent as it will open the throttle all the way open so i will check out the bracket for the foot pedal in the morning ... this just started i have not had this problem in the...

are you talking about the bracket that the rod from the carb attaches to ?

1930 model a tudor the fuel pedal is not opening the carb to full open position as the hand throttle lever will open all the way ,,, is there a way to adjust or what should i try tillotson modelx foot pedal 48 mph hand lever 55 mph

ok just hooked up jumper cables and it starts as soon as you bump the starter, thats 12 volt to 6 volt jump ,, could be a bad new battery it just aint spinning fast enough

ok sounds crazy but here it goes , the flange on the carb. where it bolts to the intake had warped and was sucking to much air,, sanded the flange back to a flat surface and a new gasket and running great at 54mph

looking good

ok like i said runs good till around 40 to 45 when it starts cutting out and backfires through the carb. you can turn the gav 4 or 5 rounds open and it dont change a thing.. the only change with the gav is when you close it all the way..

ok so 1930 tudor every thing orignal ( no modern up grades) .. runs good up to about 45mph then starts cutting out and back firing through the carb. acts like the points are closing but not the case just a reference to the way it is cutting out. is time for a carb. rebuild ? .

guys thanks for the help i will get back on it tomorrow thanks a million
