On my son's coupe, I am rebuilding the distributor. There are two scoring lines near the end of the shaft. Any idea what would cause this, something else to check, and is it okay to use or should I buy a new lower shaft?

Took these out super easily before disassembly of everything for fixing, cleanup and re-painting. Can't seem to find a picture beforehand, so can anyone identify where these go? A picture or diagram would be helpful. Thx!

The Weber carburetor has been rebuilt by Earnest Carb in El Monte to another Model A. Idle seems to be okay, but we will make sure the timing is right first. When you give it gas, it hesitates and wants to stall. Eventually, it does stall. It has an Arizona Ford fuel pump, a fuel restrict...

At an auction, I bought an HP valve cover. Can anyone tell me anything about this valve cover? It is unmarked. Can tell me what the tabs are for? I intend to take them off when I install the cover on my '32 B engine. Thanks!

In the course of gathering great things for my Ford Model A over the years, I acquired one of these flag holders that fits in between the Motometer flip-up radiator top. It's easy to put on and take off for parades. Much better than the clamp kind. Now, I', trying to find one for my son's Model...

I need some helpful tips on timing my Model A with a FS Ignition. I have been texting back and forth with FS Ignitions, and they have been helpful, but it's the weekend. I figure someone here could be helpful. Hopefully, everyone is having a great weekend. 1) For testing and troubleshooting...

How can I tell if the fuel pump is just bad? I took out the bends and the inline filter before the pump, and it brought down the sound a bit. 1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Roadster. 12v neg. 1932 B Four Cylinder Snyders High performance head Red's headers Smitty muffler Zepher intake manifold...

In a previous post, I asked for advice on how to clean up the two steel fuel sediment filter bowls. Soaked them in Rust911. Sandblasted inside and out with glass medium. Painted inside with tank sealant. Painted outside with primer and then engine green. Ordered and received lead washers from...

Seems that a lot of brakes relining companies have closed their shops. I'm getting sent in many directions, and so here I am to ask here. 1939 Ford drum brakes. Do any shops in Southern California offer a relining service? If not, then it wouldn't cost too much to send them somewhere in the...

From a good friend, who passed away, I could obtained a good metal fuel filter. It looks to be in great condition, except that it is missing the filter. 1) How do I clean the interior of it? 2) A search says most places are out of stock on a Cast Iron Sediment Bowl Repair Kit, except for...

I am running Autolite 3076 spark plugs on my Model A ('32 B Engine, high compression head, alternator, 12V, FSI, Headers, Stromberg 97). I'm getting some pre-ignition knocking, so I am in communication with FSI to adjust the timing. I decided to get some cooler plugs, so I went onto the FSI...

I have been getting this loud knocking noise for over two years now. Replacing the Weber with a Stromberg has not gotten rid of it, but it sure byppasses it faster. Some facts: It happens on the top of 2nd and 3rd while fully accelerating. Letting off the gas while it is happening removes the...

While I wait for Sam at Arizona Ford to answer the phone, I thought I would ask here. Sam is very helpful, but he's a busy guy. We are having some issues on the Weber 32/36 (we got it ten years ago or more from Sam). It seems to idle fine, but when you stomp the gas pedal, it goes into stall...

Mt son's Coupe has a two blade metal fan cooling the radiator. We have a spare four blade metal fan extra that we could put on. For safety and optimization should we: Keep the two blade metal one on? Replace with the available four blade metal one? Buy an aluminum or plastic (that's what is...

Going to try get a new one, or get gland rings. Did a copper gasket when mounting the Webber. There was a leak there before, so looks like there is some druping. Still a cool video! https://youtube.com/shorts/bSCDEyVoEto?si=egYlbRUiw2eJ5PVX

On taking out the uppermost floorboards in the coupe my son purchased, we found a hole in the top of the transmission housing right of the site panel. It lets a lot more transmission noise into the cab without the floorboards in place! Can we fix it with JB Weld, or weld a plate on it to...

Does it matter if the brake cylinder drums are backwards, and does it matter which way the wheel cylinder goes? Does it matter where as there is a big side and a small side. This is the front passenger side. Thanks 😊
