HI- I cleaned out the shut off over night in gumout and then put it back in the car and added 1 gallon of 101 octane gas and some gumout carb cleaner and let it sit for one night and the drained it again.Most of what was on the bottom of the tank came out fine.Then I washed out the shut off...

HI- Sorry to hear about your Dad! I went through the same situation and understand! Now you as his son,did he leave you the cars? or is your step mom just going to take them over? I would make sure NOW he signs a paper that they belong to you,so you can either restore one etc or sell them now...

Ed was very correct! I soaked the shut off valve in Gumout cleaner over night and it was clean,and then put a gallon of gas in the car with some gumout carb cleaner so it could burn in the car.Then I drained that and the tank is nice and clean now,I think it was from sitting.The car only has 347...

I have a 66 GTO and I have owned it since 1969! I used to run 112 octane high test gas in the car all the time and it ran perfect! The new gas with alcohol doesn't run as well and I get the pings. I added a few gallons of 101 octance leaded gas as the car was made for and it runs super.I also...

Great Question! I can get 101 octane leaded gas! Would that upset the car? make it run rich? or foul out the plugs? or should I stick to what we have now.Lucas makes a nice additive to cut down on the alcohol in gas that cost about $10.00 for a small bottle.Heard that is fine in small machines...

I took off the shutoff and soaked it for a night in gumout cleaner and it was dirty.I then drained the rest of the gas in the tank.I put the shut off back on the car and put a gallon of gas in the car with some gumout carb cleaner not to hurt the engine if some was to run through it. I am now...

Bert's is Excellent and Steve knows!

Hi- Update! Ed S,stopped by and went out of his way before going on a trip to look at my car.It is a gas problem! Where the shutoff goes into the gas tank,there is a teflon tape there on the threads,we think tape might be covering up some of the gas flow to the gas line and carb.The car does...

Thank You for all your replies! I am not feeling well and took a day off not working on the car as I can't stand for any long periods of time. I will manage and get the car running again. I appreciate all of your patience with me and my posts. If I didn't reply back directly to you I am very...

Hi- Yes,I have posted before and did answer private messages and did what I was told. I am also disabled and can't work on the car 24/7 and only when I am feeling good. It has to be a simple problem with the car and nothing major? I just asked about the cam screw turning and the points were not...

Hi- I tried to crank my Model A to open the points to check the gap,when I did this I noticed the cam screw is turning but the points are NOT opening up.Can the cam screw be loose? Do I use the cam wrench on it and with a screw driver tighten it down? Then try cranking it again? I have replaced...

Having a problem trying to start my car! It starts and runs for about 30 seconds then dies! I have checked everything and replaced everything except the coil and I have a brand new one to use. I noticed when I try and crank it the points do not open? Could the cam be loose? How do I tighten that...
