I fought this problem and all of the carburetor adjustments to no avail. Finally, I replaced my intake manifold with a verified flat surface, new gasket and the problem was solved. My advice is to make sure you check for an intake manifold vacuum leak when troubleshooting your problem.

Thank you for your replies, I have emailed Randy and now waiting for his reply.

Is Randy Gross still selling the F-100 rebuilt steering box to fit a 1930 Model A? Old age and even older shoulders make this conversion an appealing thought.

MAG, thank you for the pictures, we were able to compare a working wig wag and realized that wire was missing. In addition to a bad winding we are working to create that wire flag.

Thank you for the suggestions, the effort to get it working will continue.

I have a vintage Wig-Wag License Topper that will wig, but not wag. I have secured a couple of the wires, but I obviously have not achieved something correct to have it wag back and forth. I do not understand the mechanism to create the magnetic pull and then the release for the spring to go...

I did indeed have Jim rebuild my horn and couldn’t have been more pleased with the entire experience. I highly recommend his services and communication. Don

We will have 7 Model A's touring from the Hawk A Model A Ford Club in Cedar Rapids, IA, 5 of those will be driving from Cedar Rapids, and two will trailer to Auburn. Lets hope for low humidity and decent temps. We are look forward to an enjoyable tour.

It might just be my experience, but even with new clam shell gaskets, after filling with grease I only have to drive a few miles at highway speed and I have globs of grease out the back of the clam shell.

Thank you everyone for your support and responses. I have a set of modern style fittings ordered and I will freeze a new one and press it in. I have the tool to do that, but the fitting is an angled one so the tool I have may not help. If this doesn’t work I will report back.

I have a stripped zerk fitting on my steering spindle. I cleaned it and used some JB Weld but a day later when I applied pressure from the grease gun it blew out again. Can I tap it with another size fitting? Are there over sized zerks? Thanks

I had the same problem and my cause was a small crack in my exhaust manifold that caused the fumes to ignite, sometimes up to 45 seconds after turning the engine off. Until I could replace the manifold I turned off my gas and starved the engine to shut it off. Prior to doing that I had upset...

I got ahold of Tom today and as usual he was very helpful. Wagner Products website is temporarily down and he is having a little problem with the company phone. I would suggest if anyone has a problem getting ahold of him to call the number Larry provided in this thread. Thanks Larry

I agree on his quality. The number in the magazines is (314) 966-4444, so thank you for an updated number. I will try that number tomorrow. Thanks again,

I have two of the Wagner 6 Volt Alternators with their Fit Kits and am pleased with them, but I am trying to reach them and I can't seem to get the web site to open and their phone goes to message and hangs up. It might be on my end, but I was wondering if they were still open.

Thanks to everyone for the helpful replies, very much appreciated

One of my winter projects is to have my horn professionally gone over. Are there recommendations of places to consider. Thanks in advance.

As of today, Bert's does not have any 19-inch tubes that will work with radials.

I think I am going to cross my fingers and hope that Coker Tire is correct when they said they should have 19 inch tubes that will work in their American Classic radial by the end of the year. Getting 5 on backorder and hope.

No, even though the 19 inch tube states that it is 100% new rubber, twice today I was told by Bratton's that it will absolutely not work in a radial. I do not know why, but the person I spoke with was very definite.
