Rebuilt Zenith carburetor

Did anyone see the Facebook Group-Model A Restorers Club? Anidal Rodrigues had an article of numerous photos of 5 Speed Transmissions made in Brazil at that site.

It is starting to get warmer out, the Parades are starting soon, time to get the Model A out more, and finish up the remainder of the old $2.39 gas in the tank, and put in that new over $4 a gallon gas. Maybe by the summer end it will be over $6.

Had the car sitting in the garage for 2 months due to the weather. I took the car out yesterday for a good run, it started right up, no issues. What is the longest you can let the A sit, since it has that 10% ethanol mix in the gas ?

trying to figure out why, when I start the car after sitting in the garage after a week or maybe two, with out using the choke, the car will start up in 3 seconds. I go for a 30 minute ride or more, shut the car off, come back in 15 minutes or more, and the car takes much longer to start, why?

It might keep you enjoying the hobby longer, if you don't like that dreaded colonoscopy exam, get that 5min FIT home test directly from Pinnacle Labs online, two tests-$30, others like Amazon are charging $30 or more for 1 kit, it saved me from a possible disaster. I think the Cologuard test is...

Anyone know how Bill is doing? haven't seen him here on FordBarn lately.

it seems like there are a few strange Threads, that look like they might have a Virus, has anyone experienced this? I don't want to open them and get hit.

Costco has the Rotella 15W 40 on sale for $10 a gallon. It comes in a three gallon package-$29.99.

I replaced that cheap screw in bolt they sell, because when I went to unscrew it, the top stripped. I replaced it with an easy to remove brass bolt. Its the bolt below in the picture.

It would take me 30 minutes to take out the two front oil pan bolts because of a tight fit between pan and crossmember, so I grind down this socket, and it made it as simple as removing the others.

How do you determine if the starter is the problem, I cleaned the Armature, installed new brush set, but the starter still turns over very slow or not at all. The battery is new. This vehicle always started up immediately before.

I was at a landscape equipment store yesterday, the owner said, do not leave gas in any equipment, lawnmower, leaf blower etc. for over a month. Should that be the same rule with The Model A, since all gas here has 10% Ethanol? I do use Sta-bil additive, does that help if its over a month in the...

Hemmings wrote an article on the Model A Roadster and Phaeton this Month.

I guess there is a first time for everything, after owning this Model A for over 5 years, for the first time I get a reminder that my Model A is due for an inspection, and also informed to go to: nhtsa.gov to check if your FORD is subject to a safety recall. This shows how up to date this...

I have a Smithys muffler connected to my Headers, I want to get a muffler that is quiet, any recommendations?

I disconnected my fuel pump for my Stromberg 97, because 60mph is just fine, find no need to go 70 mph with an Antique vehicle, Ill keep that speed for the modern car, also one less thing to worry about, the pump breaking down, gravity feed works fine at 60mph. Iam going back to common sense.

Took the car out for its weekly winter exercise, speed was 58 mph at 2400 rpms, is that about normal for a 3:54 in the rear?

Took the car out for its winter exercise yesterday, for over an hour, the radiator temperature gauge was 130 to 135 with the outside temperature about 36 degrees. Is it ok to run the car that cold?, usually in the warm weather its at 160 and above.

I found this in one of my magazines, couldn't get a clear picture. It says that the NYPD bought 200 Model Ts in 1927.
