Very true!! You never know when and where those little gems of information will come from.

Thanks guys for all the information. The crazy thing is that I have cleaned stuff up like this for years and never knew the dangers.

Aah yes, I have that too. Thanks.

THanks. Once removed, can you just spray everything good with Lysol?

Thank You. As usual, I have already done one seat cushion without any protection. Learned of the warning after the fact. It has been a couple of months with no apparent issues. Hopefully, everything is OK.

I am in the restoration process on a Model A that was stored for many years. I have discovered more than one nest tucked away in the seat springs. Normally I would just reach in and pull out and/or vacuum out to remove as much as possible. Also, the upholstery will be removed anyway since it is...

I am not doing it myself, and the guy that is doing my metal/body work has not done one before. Question: Are there fit up problems(when fitting to the car afterwards) if you change the inner out to convert to rumble?

I am needing a good rumble lid to convert during my restoration. I have a very good trunk lid that I would trade if desired.

Thanks for the good information. I did not think about the fact the components would be surrounded by the fuel.

Yes, that makes sense. It has been blasted and the threads chased. I looks really dry and I remember how hard the old one was to get out.

Is it a good idea or a bad one to put a little anti-sieze on the secondary well threads before screwing it in. Will it help later in possible future repairs or rebuilds?

Thanks Tom. Just what I needed to know. I will go check out your rig.

I am rebuilding my Zenith carburetor and want to test the float level. I have everything I need to do so. I am still in the middle of a total restoration and the car will not be running for a while. I want to rebuild the carb and have it ready for when it is ready to run. My question is this...

Brent, I spoke to Jim just last week about the orifice size on the jets. I ended up getting a set of "corrected" jets from him and they arrived this past Thursday. He was a joy to talk to and he answered all of my questions. He will most certainly be in my prayers. Jim, Stay strong and fight...

Thanks again everyone for the information! I have downloaded Tom Endy's article and it looks excellent. THanks!

No, Unfortunately not until Christmas.

Thanks for the link guys. This is my first attempt at this. Does not seem to big a deal but I want to do it right the first time.

I am rebuilding my Zenith carb. Is there a place that lists all the thread specifications on the top and bottom body halves? Some of the threads are going to have to be cleaned up. I am familiar with the M5 used with the jets and have one of those. I was really hoping they would be listed...

Thanks Everyone!!

Is that on the outside of the inner cover?
