Amp meter has no indication that it is charging. Please comment.

I have a couple of HA-C1's wipers and I want to make one good one out of the two. Thus I need to take the motor part from one and put it on the gear part of the other. The problem is getting it apart. The pin (see picture) that goes through the little rod that turns it on, will not come...

I have a couple of electric wiper motors that I am trying to identify and then try to get some ideas on how to fix them. Anyone have pictures or know where I can find them? I tried to search this site but could not find any pictures that looked like mine.

I know, there are a lot of posts on exhaust backfire problems which I checked. But I could not find one like mine. First of all, a few weeks ago, I drove my huckster a number of miles with various driving conditions. Everything ran great-no backfire problems and no other problems. Today, I...

No I do not mean the guy behind the wheel! It is the car that is jerking around. To fill you in on the problem. My 1929 coupe has sat in the garage since the 4th of July parade. I started it up to take it for a drive. When I took off is 1st gear, it had a bad jerking or stalling when I...

No it is my 29 Huckster's horn that is not tooting. Just a few comments about it's situation: 1. Use to toot OK when the motor was reved up. 2. Now does not do anything-will not even show anything on amp meter. 3. Attached battery charger direct to horn-worked great. 4. Both wires going into...

As some of you may know, I am the one that knows little about the finer workings of the old Model A. So I always have lots of questions. Being bored in these winter months, I decided to try my hand and rebuilding an extra carb. Well I got all the main pieces I needed, upper and lower bodies...

Local A & W. Still serve in car. Still great root beer floats!

Sorry to say the earlier comments I made about solving my Knock Knock problem did not solve the problem. Within a short period of time running around, the old knock came back. So I took things apart again-carb off, manifold off, valve plate cover off and checked things out again. Checked the...

Would like to have a usable upper part to a zenith carb. Must be able to use to add to my usable bottom zenith carb part to make a usable carb. Would like pictures. Will send email to get pictures with a PM.

Think I may have to check over my timing gear. Question I have is how to get the 4 pan bolts out of the timing gear cover? On my rig, it seems like the pan is only maybe 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch away from the front cross member. I can't get a wrench in there to remove the middle two bolts...

Over the years I have worked on my carbs. I know nothing about what to do with them. So I try to read the books, look up stuff on FB but I succeed in messing up more carbs. So thought I would share some of the real screw ups. 1. Don't forget to tighten the drain plug on the bottom of the...

Does anyone have a good usable bottom half of a Zenith Carb.? If so how much do you want for it? Also do you have pictures?

Do you need to remove manifolds to do this? Or just the carb?

No it is not "knock, knock-whose there?" but rather where does this knock come from. My 29 coupe has a knock! It seems like it knocks every time a piston fires. It is a kind of "hard" knock. It is there at an idle, still there when the engine speeds up a bit. Has just about the same knock...

Have a problem with my 29 huckster with a ruff idle. It sounds like when a person has the GAV screwed out to far. Like it is getting to much gas. Also when I screw the GAV all the way in it still has the same problem. Spark plugs are black and when first starting, it leaves black stuff on...

Have a question about what bolts sets, gaskets, etc. are needed to install the flywheel cover with the ****** attached onto the engine. Will be doing it with a friend and I left my Les Andrews manual in my old shop and we need to make sure we have everything to get it done. I know we need the...

We have just moved to a house in Stayton Oregon. Have a problem trying to figure out how to get one of my Model A's onto my third garage if one comes limping home behind a tow truck. The problem is the ramp into the third garage (my new workshop) goes "up hill", that is the garage is maybe 5...

Just a simple question about when a person re-installs an engine with float a motor mounts. Question is: Do you mount the upper part of the FAM before you lift the engine in or do you put them on once you get the engine lifted in place and you are ready to bolt them down? Hope this makes...

Hope this is an appropriate question for Ford Barn. But we have moved with our A's to another town in Oregon called Stayton. Anyone Barner live close by? If so please PM me so we may get together if you would iike.
