I am playing around under the hood troubleshooting an engine that won't start. Is There any way to hook up some kind of remote starter switch to the old girl? It would be nice not to need 2 people every time I want to be under the hood playing with the ignition while someone else turns her over.

Resurrecting this old postt. I have the same issue. Anyone ever come up with a good solution?

Exactly, no access to it. Thanks guys

In the process of ordering an enclosed trailer that will be used to haul my 31 roadster and many other toys. I need the Track Width (center to center distance, left to right between the tires). I am planning on having recessed Etrack installed and want to position it the right locations...

Looking for shocks for a 28 ford A Model in usable condition or rebuildable. Please send a PM

Yes, not warm days here!! I was thinking hair dryer or possibly putting them in a tub full of hot water, but not sure if that would be safe?

The previous owner folded and rolled the side side curtains for my Phaeton neatly in a lump in the trunk. Now the plastic windows are all formed into rounded shapes. What is the safest way to bring them beck to their former flatness?. I know that folding clear plastic windows is a big no no...

Awesome tip on the search thanks!

Wow, that is good to know that the tank is not the cowl!

I didn't realize how common an issue this is. Thanks found the links Does the cowl have to be completely disassembled and removed and repainted on a 28 Phaeton to remove the tank??

I just acquired a 1928 A and drove it 40 or so miles and at the end of the drive noticed dripping from the end of the formed channel by the firewall where all the wires, cables, etc run behind the gas gauge. It was clear that the gas gauge was old and had been leaking for some time, BUT this...

"during the Model-A era, the Model-A generally sold to a lower incomed family" This makes sense, but it is something I have never understood in reference to their being so many coupes around now. If it was the lower income families buying the model A's, wouldn't they buy the most practical...

Awesome! Happy Holiday

WellmI guess I will start by taking apart and cleaning the cones and go from there. I was gonna put in some kind of stops, but I didn't want to drill into the stanchions.

One thing that has bugged the hack out of me and I never seem to get around to resolving is as follows: On my 31 deluxe roadster, over speeds of around 40 MPH the windshield flips inward due to the wind pressure. It had rubber gaskets all round the frame. I am sure it is a repro windshield and...

Re: Transporting a Model A - Intercity Lines I have used intercity lines at least half a dozen times, and there prices are always competitive, they use their own trucks and drivers, and I only had one tiny issue that they responded to and resolved quickly and very professionally. Only...

How do you check at the alternator with the one wire setup? One meter lead to the wire, and the other to the body of the alternator? Are you proposing actually checking the alternator to see if it reads AC? I have never heard of this

Thanks for the tips, I tried checking the voltage of the battery with a digital volt meter and as soon as I touch the GND lead of the meter to the GND post the meter goes crazy. I guess I need an analog meter to do this verification while the engine is running? I have a Schumacher BT-100 100...
