I also used 100% vinegar in my flathead for two weeks and drove it a few hundred miles. I could not beleive the large chunks of crap and thick chocolate soup that came out. H36

Check the floors from the bottom up. Jack up the rear of the car and pull on the rear wheels and check for extra play. Jack up the front of the car and check the front wheels for extra play. Check the brakes and adjust if necessary (not sure if mechanical brakes). Check Radiator for leak stains...

Thanks rotorwrech, but the car starts and run just fine. I will have a look at the fuse again but the first time everything looked OK. H36

A few weeks ago I drove my 36 home after the sunset and I drove home with my headlights on. I left my headlights on and 2 weeks later I found out that my headlights and tail lights don't work. Is it the switch ? The car in question is 6v positive ground. Thank you, H36

Following this thread.

I'm hoping to start my 59AB motor with my rebuilt water pumps today, I will keep a eye out for any leaks.
