Here's a new one in my Flathead adventures. 1936 Ford Tudor. I have converted to 12v with the Vintage Garage kit. Everything had been just great for a few months then when leaving a cruise in last week she would only turn over but finally fired and got me home. had to work on some other stuff...

These are in a 1936. Has it been factory redone?

Trying to track down a vacuum leak, would a small tear in float bowl gasket cause no flow? I can force air into tank fill and gas flows good into a jar, hook up to sediment bowl and nothing. I'm in process of changing vacuum advance; it looks like someone tried to turn the non-turning nut where...

Happy day after Thanksgiving. I'm finally sucking it up and am about to replace the fuel tank. Looking for suggestions on best fitting brands. Also, fuel gauge is always 1/2 full. would that be the sending unit? Also tips on any other parts I should order, besides a spanner wrench? Thanks, Greg

My spring was broken, have two, now one new one because I over loaded , as usual for me. Can’t determine what keeps the coiled spring in place behind the striker. I’ve googled pictures, dropped the spring back like it was but can’t tell what to lay it against behind the striker? Anybody? Help...

Took Tudie out today after replacing fuel pump. She ran really good, just went about 5 miles and came back and parked in garage. Took her out about two hours later, made it about 3 miles she started to stumble then shut off. Trying to restart found that the floor button was red hot. Had her...

I have an EAB engine it has a Holley 94 8Ba mounted to it now, that’s the way I got it. I’m having it rebuilt and one of the squirters are clogged solid. My guy says Carb seems a little small for the engine. Will a SuPer 97 work or get parts of another 94 I have laying around ?

Hello, I finally picked up some parts thrown in on a trade. The engine on the stand is a 1946? Says 59Ab. Color appears Mercury? Is the tag a rebuild tag? The frame on the other is pretty shot. I’m going to get rid of it. The motor on the stand, I want to try and get it unbound then tear down...

I have a chance to take these on a trade, they are being added for boot on a 39 RatRod. Value of $400.00. The motor on the frame is bound up. The one on a stand will turn. I’ve only seen these pictures myself. WhT do you guys see?

The two highlighted outlets are not connected for crossover? Instead if you pour water in either side it flowed out top of intake instead of filling to level of other side.

Looking for an intake for Tudie. 3 bolt carb mount for Stromberg 1936, 85 hp. Any suggestions or tips for disassembly and install. Thanks Greg In Tennessee. Attached pic. This is on there now, I repaired this repair, it still looks crappy and leaks. Thanks for responses

Tudie’s starting to start It’s me again. Put the new starter on today. Checked it before hand by connecting to Tudie’s 6volt battery. Spun better with what looks like a new bendix (that came of the other starter) than the old one did without. Excitement as I pushed the the button but…. Just a...

Ordered points without pulling Distributor first, guess mine was an early year after all. Is this a Norse brand rotor?

It’s me again with another question. Thanks in advance as I learn on the go. This site and you guys have been a lot of help. Looking for a tune up kit for 1936 model 68. Points etc. thanks, Greg

Hello, looking for suggestions. I’ve had The 1936 Tudor about 6 months. It has an after market aluminum tank. Running electric fuel pump and filter at tank, to prime only. I’ve only filled it full maybe twice. I’ve run out of gas about four times. Each time was after short rides, about 4 gallons...

1936 Model 68. The linkage from the accelerator linkage on firewall that connects to carb is too long and has been bent in a curve to compensate by previous owner. Ordered a 10.5 “ and it’s about 1.5” too long. Does 8.5” sound standard? According to what I’ve read 10.5” is standard. Do I need to...

Looking for suggestions. My newly acquired 1936 Tudor is slowly getting to the point that I’m not too worried about wearing comfortable walking shoes or the tow truck on speed dial. Starts pretty easy. I’ve changed oil and drained and refilled radiator, cleaned plugs, rebuilt carb(97), rebuilt...

Before and after. Cleaned, rebuilt and installed. Man what a difference in start, idle and smoothness. Little by little she’s on her way to dependability. Right?

Man she starts,idles and runs much better now. After and before

1936 has a Ford script 40-8620-A belt. I ordered one online it came to me without the (A) I assumed this is why the belt is one inch larger and slightly smaller in width. Any suggestions for what I thought was a simple order? Like just head to NAPA and try to match? Thanks
