    Model B Carb Issues

    So as one of my Covid-19 therapy projects I rebuilt and restored 2 Model B Zenith Carbs. I actually really like them. They run and idle well and the transverse mounted float helps with stalling at sudden stops. Both of these perform almost the same and both have the same quirk. From start to...

    Stubborn Zenith

    I have a very nice Zenith 1 that runs great at speed but tends to struggle to idle. I have gone through carb completely as I have done many others but have never found one that I could not adjust the idle air mixture. The passage is clear with the correct length air mixture needle driver...

    One Piece Hood Prop

    I remember seeing a one piece flat bar with angled turned up edges to hold the hood in place. I thought it was in the back of the restorer magazine but haven't seen it since. Anyone know of this and where it can be bought?

    Model B Distributor Swap

    I have always misunderstood that to use the Model B distributor in that you had to wire your existing ignition cable to the distributor. Since I have finally been schooled correctly If you have made this swap what have you done with your existing setup?

    Distributor Oiler and Bushings.

    Occasionally when rebuilding a distributor I will run across the remnants of some type of wick in the side oiler chamber. No part exists in any catalogue I have seen nor have any of the online articles or seminars have mentioned it. I have seen it enough that it appears not to be just random...

    Don't ask me how

    Reassembling a motor that a club member brought back from New York state all went well until this piston decided to not to cooperate. The pistons are 120 over and finding replacements has turned out to be the proverbial needle in the haystack. Exhausted all of our leads here in the middle of...

    PCV Valve conversion

    I have lost the write up I found on adding a PCV valve to control blow by. It used some jeep parts if I remember. If anyone still has this conversion article and can share it will certainly be appreciated.

    Superb Carb Info

    I remember looking at this after it was first put up and thought how good a job it was of describing the Zenith carb. I went back to it again this week after doing some more research and looking for some clarifications that I had seen elsewhere. I would just like to call out what again I think...

    Zenith Carbs All Manufacturers

    I picked up a Zenith Sidebowl top which allowed me to pair it with the Zenith 3 bottom I already had. After I got done I realized I now had all 3 manufacturers quite by accident. I currently have a Zenith 2 sidebowl on my late 31 deluxe coupe and this Zenith 3 will be it's replacement unless I...

    Zenith Mod

    Working on a Canadian built 31 roadster and when pulling the Zenith 2 carb apart I noticed these mods. Seems to me like I have seen it before but I can't recall where. Is this a modern replacement?

    Leakless Pump front Bearing

    So my guess when tearing this leaking pump apart was that this had a sealed front bearing which is why the shaft is turned like this. Now the question is where can I get a replacement?
