Sadly, I didn't get to drive the Model A this summer as much as I would have liked. As I think about getting the car ready for winter storage (I'm in Chicago -- it could snow tomorrow!) I wonder about flushing the radiator either with plain clean water, or with a commercial rust flush...

Each spring I use a rust inhibitor/cleaner in the radiator. I am wondering if it is harmful to leave this chemical in the radiator all summer, or if it should be flushed out and replaced. Replaced with what? plain water? A mix of anti-freeze? Fresh inhibitor? Something else? Thanks!

This is a small matter, but a frustrating one. Does anyone have a good solution to keeping the top brackets of the rumble seat from popping out of the slots on the lid deck? I know where to loosen the screws to get the brackets back in, but it is very awkward to reach the screw heads...

Is there a way to test the health of a battery? I installed a new battery November, 2019. I do not disconnect in winter; store car indoors. In summer I drive about 5 miles most days. Approaching 3 year anniversary, wondering how I can tell if the battery is in need of replacement? Don’t want...

I’m giving up on moto-meter style radiator cap — too many experiences with stuck cap. Any recommendations on replacement for 30- Coupe? Radiator is a recent replacement. Problem I am trying to solve is getting rusty water blowback on bonnet and windshield, so I’m thinking it should be...

I have a Ford script motometer with the temperature gauge showing through a small window. The upper half of the cap seems to be stuck to the lower half, such that the entire motometer housing comes off the radiator when I try to open it. I’ve removed it and tried to open, cleaned the rust...

This problem has occurred now twice in the past month: the starter seems to get stuck in the "on" position after pressing the floor button to start the engine. The first time I was somehow able to wiggle it free, but last night I had to shut off the emergency switch on my fuse to stop the...

I am having problems with rust appearing on the fins of my relatively new 30 Coupe radiator. I honestly don't know where it came from -- possibly overflow from radiator cap. How do you clean the rust without damaging the radiator, and then what is the best way to keep it clean?

I would appreciate some guidance on where to start looking for my problem. Brought the car out of winter storage with no issues. Drove car for several hours without issues. Today, the engine started normally but stalled after just a few minutes. Tried several times with throttle in...

Looking for proper guidance to install new motometer so that I don’t mess up the radiator collar nor the new motometer. Do I need to loosen the Allen nuts so that it turns easily, or is there some other trick to this?

At the end of Les Andrew's book (pages 3-4 and 3-5) there are some very useful lubrication diagrams with letters and numbers. However, I can't find a legend for the meaning of the letters or numbers -- which I would find helpful. Any ideas? Alternatively, any other good suggestions for Spring...

I have a thermostat-style radiator cap that became badly corroded. I have soaked it in CLR and most of the corrosion dissolved, but I still have some crust that just won't disappear. Worse yet, the hinged top won't open -- I can only access the radiator by taking the entire cap off. Any...

I think I just made a rookie mistake of draining the transmission (gearbox?) oil instead of the crankcase oil. What to replace it with? 600W? How much?
