Just wondering if I can keep the battery up under normal daylight driving conditions. At the cutout, I'm at 7.2 volts, at the battery I've got 6.9 volts, and at the Amp meter I'm reading 6.5 amps. Assuming the amp meter is accurate. Does this sound like all is fairly good or should I raise...

purchased the new headlight reflectors from Brattons...90.00. Finally got the lights to adjust according to the way I interstand it. You adjust the lights with the high beams I think....is the high beam the V shaped element? And the V shaped element on top? Which is the light switch all the way...

I am worried about the A in my garage, I have a wyfi thermometer on the engine and a drop light with a 100w bulb and I'm reading 27 degrees. Last year I flushed the system but didn't realize I purchased 50% antifreeze. I know it only a three gallon system, but is this enough to keep the block...

I finally made a timing light to check the advance while setting the timing like Les Andrews says. I have my light come on on the first click when you pull the lever down....I'm thinking I'm perfect! Now it's hard to start?? Am I two close? Before I checked it and on the third click down the...

Does anyone know where I can find the cardboard panels for the inside of my coupe in the rumble seat area. I believe there is three...both sides and the back of the front seat. Also, the kick panels ahead of both doors. I found a pattern to make your own for the 28-29, but can't find a pattern...

I don't know what changed when I took everything apart when I removed the steering column a second time to replace the bushings in the steering sector, but now my lights won't stay on and as I'm driving they go off and on. Is there something I should be seeing that I'm not? Thanks in advance Tom

This auto used to be a friends, Father's car. He asked me if I could figure it out as to what kind of car it is, I can't so I'm asking all of your input. Thank in advance. Tom

I purchased a blade and arm from Snyders. I have a 30 coupe with a vacuum motor, the photo below shows both. How do I manipulate these to get them together? Are they the correct items. Thanks.

I'm not sure if this is a proper match, can anyone tell me what I should have and how I can put them together. Is it ok to bend the ears to get it together, and is it ok to have all that slop from side to side. Here is a photo of what I purchased from Snyders,

I purchased a manifold heater called a "Director" but I seem to be having trouble getting it into place...the clip bracket on the distributor seems to be sticking out too far and won't let it rest in place. Also, there is no apparent way to hold it in place to keep it from rattling. Has anyone...

I'm thinking of replacing my pitman arm with the short one. What is your experience and how much will it lengthen my turning radius? Will I always have to make only K turns after making the change? Tom

How do I remove the bushings in the sector without harming the sector?

On the driver side, my window will drift down while driving about an inch. If I have this same window down, it will drift up about an inch. What's happening and what do I need to do to correct it? Thanks in advance. Tom

Has any fordbarners ever converted thestock cans tothe sealed beams? I'm finding the need for more light at night. I've read articles on using the beam under the oringinal lense, and most say don't do it. I find often getting caught driving in the dark leaving car shows of some distance from...

Is there a site or book specifically for installing cowl lights. I want to know what parts are needed and in what order they are to be installed. I was given the cowl lights and want to use them as turn signals. I could use the extra load to speed up the flasher...as I am using resistors for a...

Trying to set the amperage on the A using the gauge on the dash, and at a high idle I set the brush so the needle was between the 0 and 15 amp marks. When I checked the volts using a meter I was putting out 9 volts. When I had it set this way it always showed a charge on the meter except when I...
