My brake pedal does not match the clutch as far as the height when they are up. Was there ever a difference with later brake pedals as in 1932and up? This was like this when I bought the car and am wondering if the notch that matches with the bell housing might be the problem.

Does anybody have a good idea how much a GAZ engine head is worth?

I discovered that since I was using modern points, the condenser was located on top of the upper plate and the tab used for the original condenser on the lower plate was not being used. The unused tab was touching the distributor housing causing a short. I bent the tab so that it was not...

Hi Guys. I need your help again. I wanted to build up a couple of distributors to carry in my car. I replaced all the parts with modern points and new lower plate with longer wire. The first one I installed worked perfectly, but the second one wouldn't start the car. When checking for voltage...

thank you

Does anybody know where I can get a blank model t key

I have a 31 s/w and the wiper arm came off the other day. My problem is that I can't figure out how to put it back together again. It is the arm, not the blade. Help please, pictures would be appreciated.

Thanks Guys

I recently acquired a brake lathe Star model #800 and I would like to rebuild my brakes. Problem is that no information came with the machine. I was a machinist for many years and know that I can do it. If anybody has a technical manual for this machine I would like to get a copy so I know what...

Thanks guys. I think you all have scared me enough that I will attempt to sand and repaint in place. This is exactly what I was hoping for when I posted this question. Thanks again for the reply's.

I just bought a 1931 Slant Windshield and would like to remove the piece that is between the windshield and the gas tank. It really needs to be repainted while the paint on the car is excellent. I would rather not try to paint on the car because the paint is so bad on this piece it would be...

What is the best grease to use on an original water pump?

Thanks to you all for responding. I had never heard of timing this way and according to your responses, I understand the physics behind it. After timing the old fashion way (top dead center) I was skeptical about using a new system. Thanks again guys.

I was having trouble timing my Model A so a friend of mine came over to help. After insuring that the distributor was in good shape and the point gap was set at .022, he set the timing so that when completely advanced, it was at 28 degrees. Car runs great now but was wondering what the opinion...

I have a 1921 Roadster and would like to install turn signals. Any suggestions? I see that Lang's has a complete setup. Is that best or should I purchase the lights separately.

I am trying to determine how many amps my starter draws when starting my car. I have a clamp on ammeter gauge and want to know how to test is. What procedure do I use? What should the starter draw during startup? My car doesn't start until I take my foot off of the starter button.

Thanks for your info. I have three of these and the one with the side lens has a red large kens so I assumed it was a tail light. They are all in good shape except they need to be painted. I can't believe I have been kicking these lights around for over thirty years and now can use them. Go figure.

I found out how to mount the side lights and ordered the brackets from Lang's. Now I want to restore them and I can't figure out how to remove the lenses. I see that the clear lens on the side is held in place by a retainer ring, but don't see how the large lenses are held in. In the catalog...

I see Model T's with and without what appears to be kerosene side lights. Is it proper to put them on if my Model T does not have them?

Am new to T's and was wondering what the physical difference there is between a 1921 and a 1924 T. I purchased a 21 Roadster and it has a 24 engine in it. Just wondering!
