Hi gents, supposed to drive to a show tomorrow so took the 31 out for a rip and ended up puking rad fluid all over the car. Upon further investigation I stumbled upon my own stupidity and forgot to install the gasket that goes under the flip portion of the cap:mad:! It’s gone, vanished...

Hey gents, so I bought a screw on gas pedal as my car was missing one. Turns out upon closer inspection that have a flange or knob at the end of my linkage where the pedal is supposed to go. Did the model A ever have this? Or is it from a different model??? Any ideas on what to do? Grind it...

Hello gents. I understand all about the slop or free play adjustment on the distributor cam/shaft. Les Andrew’s states all test light on/off adjustments to be made with the distributor cam full clockwise. Other recommends like Nu-wrench basically say the same thing……take out the slop by...

Hey guys….I’m still trouble shooting my Powerhouse gen. I understand there should be no continuity from the terminal wire or post that exits the gen body to the case itself. But mine does. I removed that wire from the adjustable brush…..it’s a 3 brush unit, and there is no short or...

Hi guys……it’s difficult getting parts shipped to Canada. Maybe not difficult but very time consuming as far as shipping goes. Anyway…..anyone in western Canada that has a working gen they want to sell? I have a 31 Roadster but it has a Powerhouse gen on it that I can’t get to run properly...

Gentleman, having a electrical issue that’s driving me crazy. I have a Powerhouse gen on a 31 roadster. The gen passes the motoring test but seems to turn slowly. Cutout is old school. The gap checks out and seems to close at around 7 volts. The car starts and runs fine….very well even. But...

Hey guys…..what kind or type of sill plates would go here? Mines a 31 Roadster. Can’t seem to find any online that match the 2 holes in my car….ideas?

Hey guys, was happy to receive my Nu-Rex timing wrench the other day…..not at all happy with it. I’ve only owned my A for about a month, and am going through it from front to back as it had been sitting for 5 years. I have read everything about these wrenches on this site. Still I can’t get...

Hi guys, trying to figure out why my A has a fairly large gap between the ignition and throttle levers in relation to the indexed or ridges/clicks. Are these rods adjustable in and out? Can the ridged tab be bent? Or am I missing a piece there. Not a big deal, just trying to time and set...

In the process of getting my 31 started. I have a lift with a winch on it but am worrying about where I can attach a pull point or tow point on the car. The front axle beam is at the same level as the shroud beneath the radiator. I don’t want to hook on there and perhaps damage the shroud...

Are there any active Canadians or international members on this forum that actively order items or parts from one of the many reputable American suppliers? I don’t have issues paying currency differences, that’s life. My issue is all the additional charges…..duty, global shipping additions...

Hi guys, this is my first post and am happy to be aboard……WHAT A FANTASTIC SITE!! I finally bought my first Model A about a week ago. Have been a dedicated muscle car guy (still am) but love the A…..so simple. So first of I’m sure many questions: For clarity my car is a 31 deluxe roadster...
