This is the method I used to try and time my "A" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwirH7f0a9o

Recently I purchased a 30' coupe. It idled fine but backfired at speed. The Tillotson Model X carb leaked horribly when the gas was left on. I assumed there was blockage in the carb making the vehicle run lean. So, I purchased a Tillotson rebuild kit and proceeded to rebuild the carb. The Model...

Is it my computer or is the website down?

Thank you

How do I determine my ratio?

The leak is between the engine and the bell housing. If it was a sbc I would guess rear main seal.

Imagine how aweseome it would look with a blown sbc and flames!:eek:

That's the stuff dreams are made of...I hope they never sell it.

This is really helpful information. Thank you.

My Fordor Sedan has an oil leak that is getting worse. The leak is very bad right after the motor has been run and slows after it cools off. What are some typical types of oil leaks these engines develop? I am wanting to have everything I need to fix before the vehicle is tore down although I...

Check out this trunk. The owner believes it to be FOMOCO but I am not sure. The inside is very nice wood and slotted for Model A tools.

OK Thanks, it looks like I have a short in the wiring. Are there any tricks to locating shorts? The only way I can think of is to visually inspect all wires. Thanks

How do I wire the headights so they are on the same fuse alone? I am currently using the monofuse and the engine dies when my headlights pop the fuse. Also, do the 6 volt halogens pull more current? Im lost when it comes to wiring.

When I wired them I designated high beam, low beam, and ground. Now that they are wired I only have...

Yes, but it is disassembled.

My brother is looking for a car to buy and we found a nice coupe. Unfortunately the vehicle got hot and cracked a head. The owner has a new head, gaskets, and fasteners to fix. What other problems can we expect to find as a result of the overheating. Would you be scared?

Thanks guys, ya'll are a big help.

When assembling the carb b y the instructions, they say to bottom out the needle and back it off 1 and 1/2 turns. That would be too rich, correct?

What are the ways you can tell if your vehicle is running too lean or too rich?
