    Voltage regulator

    I think this would work with a late 1930s or 1940s Ford car regulator. The regulator would be mounted on either side of the firewall. The 3rd brush would be removed from the generator and the wire from the field winding that had been on the 3rd brush would be brought out of the generator case...

    Transmission Oil going to Differential

    My 1931 Model A Coupe. Transmission oil is leaking into the differential. I know that because the oil level in the transmission goes down and the level in the differential goes up. I’m using 600 W oil purchased from the parts suppliers. I don’t know if the rear transmission bearing seal is...

    Wax in a generator?

    I have been thinking that one of these regulators should work on a Model A. Have you done it? How did you handle the 3rd brush in the generator? Did you run a wire from the 3rd brush through the generator endplate to the field terminal on the regulator? I would appreciate your comments on...

    Over Heating

    Utopia Texas makes a good point about radiator fins. If the fins are not tight the radiator will not cool.

    Voltage regulator

    Has anyone used a tractor voltage regulator on a Model A? If so, what kind and how is it working for you?

    I think it can be saved.

    Coil springs, not a Model A.

    A question for old guys

    I'm 81 and can still do anything that needs to be done. I also ride a bike and or walk just about every day. You have to keep moving. A word to you younger guys (50, 60, 70), if you are not already, start moving. You will be a lot better of when you are 80.

    Overheating cured by adding thermostat

    Putting the thermostat close to the bottom of the radiator hose helps. Hold it in place with another hose clamp so it doesn't work its way to the top.

    Weird Question

    Jack up right real wheel. Put in 3rd gear. Turn wheel forward direction. If timing dimple is hard to find, pull #1 spark plug, you can see the top of the piston when it is at TDC. Make sure it is TDC on compression stroke.
