I found this in my oil pan while cleaning out the sludge. I hope if fell in and didn't fall off something inside the engine. Anyone know where it might have come from? Getting ready to put the pan back on and I don't see anything obvious missing. Thanks in advance for the help! Larry

I just started the process of removing the sludge in my engine by removing the Valve Cover. The pan in next, but I wanted to clean this first before moving on. I have two questions. First the last valve is in the open position and the spring appears to be at an angle. I hope to attach a...

I'm trying to remove the hood on my 1930 CCPU. The book says to remove the two screws at the back of the hood that holds the pin. The two screws won't back out, as they have nuts on the underside that rotate. The are under the dash inside the cab, and I can see them from under the car as I...

Well, two steps forward, one back. I replaced my broken front spring, and decided to replace the deteriorating rubber radius ball with the original style new from Snyder's. The bolts were buggered up, so I thought I would put the new ones in that came with the new assembly. I got one out...

I pulled the steering column from my 1930 PU as the two tooth steering gear is leaking like a sieve. I discovered a crack in the steering column just below the spark and gas rod control arms that goes about 2/3 of the way around the column. Is this common or unusual, and can I just have it...

Got my 1930 Pickup back from the body shop last week. Hasn't been on the road in 30 to 40 years, and I'm at least the 4th owner in this restoration process. I got it on the road Monday, and of course had a few problems. Some I've solved after spending hours on this forum, but I can't seem to...
