I'm rebuilding my distributor. I did a quick test fit of the shaft sleeve. The sleeve slides over the upper shaft without issue, and the pin lines up. The lower shaft also fits into the sleeve with a lot of wiggle room. I'm not sure how to install the lower shaft into the sleeve. And I'm not...

I just finish replacing my 2 piece pulley with a 1 piece. Went for a celebration drive. And had to smash the brakes to avoid an accident. Now my rear brake is locked up. I'm having difficulty pulling the drum. And all the pullers seem to be to small. I'm not finding a lot of info on large brake...

Does THIS sound like valves?

I have a lot of slop in my steering. And I just came across a new steering wheel. So I am currently taking apart my 7 tooth box to make sure everything is as good as I can possibly make it, before I swap out my steering wheel. My question is in regards to the worm gear retainer clip. I was...

Okay fellas, I'm stumped. I started to drive my 28 coupe long distances. Today I drove from Santa Clarita to Camarillo. About 60 miles. I made it to my destination without any problems.

I've been working on my vehicle over the last few months. Fixing things here and there. The engine runs a little better after each repair. And with each repair, I drive the car a little more. And with each drive, the engine will overheat sooner then the last drive. I tore apart the cooling...

I am adding a push button solenoid for the starter. One thing I have not seen in the forum, is where people mount the push button. I would like to mount it up under the dash panel somehow. But, I would like to see what others have done first.

I'm having difficulty removing the shaft from my water pump. I was watching this video where the shaft was removed with all the front packing still in place. HERE I have the front cup, felt, washer and bushing removed. The sleeve, back washer and felt cup are still in place. The shaft pulls...

Hello everyone. I am looking for a good heavy car cover for my '30 Coupe Deluxe. I have the side mirrors, side tire, and trunk. I'm looking for a thick cover. One that might help protect the paint if someone hits my car when opening their door. I've looked online, but am unsure as to which...

Hello everyone! I inherited a '30 coup deluxe about three years ago. I knew nothing about cars when I did. And have been learning as much as possible along the way. Mostly when something breaks (which is quite often). The old girl sat around for a good 20 years moving from one garage to the...

I have been researching about my issue, but have not found a solid answer yet. My '30 coupe dies right at a half tank of gas. I remove the gas cap to make sure its not vapor lock. I have checked all the fuel lines, there are no clogs. I have looked down into the tank after it dies, and I do not...
