    Weird Fuel Gauge Problem after installing new harness

    Hey all, Just an update. I checked all connections; the solid yellow was not fully connected. I had to expand the size of the barrel connector, and all is well. I will point out that while the battery was disconnected, I managed not to have a spark after putting it all back together. No...

    Weird Fuel Gauge Problem after installing new harness

    Thanks. I am going to guess it's the original sender. I have had the car for 20 years, and it has been in my family for 30 years before that. Yes, that leaves 30+ years of an unknown. The tank appears original as well. Will check the wires against the diagram.

I'm not sure this is correct, so I'm looking for the proper length. I'm working with Chris at Bauer on this. They can make one but need more details. If it...

    Distributor guru suggestions

    I just went through two helmet distributors. The one I took off the car was rebuilt by Jim Linder (RIP) in about 2011. The other one I bought was a rebuild from someone on here a while back. Both shafts had some type of insulation. Bubbas had shrink wrap and the other a couple of wraps of...

    Optima 6 Volt Red Top Battery

    I gave up on the Optima batteries. First one lasted 9 years, second one lasted three. Went and bought a conventional 6 volt at Auto Zone and its been much better.

    1939 Ford sedan Cranks wont turn over

    Check for spark while cranking. I had a similar issue on my 40. No spark and it turned out to be the ignition switch behind the steering column.

    I had a similar experience on my 40 until I rectified that last year. 1. 2006 Stock manifolds, cross under engine and then again at crossmember under the U-joint. Voila dual exhaust. 2. 2021 - Speedway Fentons and Red's Fenton to muffler pipe. No go. Fentons hit the steering box and...
