reply #2....Your address was correct. I didn't put the s at the end of tyree. Thank you.

I have seen Tyree Harris' name mentioned on the Forum regarding wiring harnesses for Model A's. I wrote the address tyreewires@g.mail.com but it came back as invalid. Would anyone have his correct e-mail address? Thanks

Thank you for the diagrams! The car is the deluxe model so I do believe the cowl lights are original but will still do as you suggested to be certain.

Re: alllightson Thanks to those with all the helpful suggestions. I did change the title to...''headlight & cowl lights on at same time''. This weekend I will remove the light switch body and see what sense can be made of it.I'm sure it's the original wiring in there.

Re: alllightson Good suggestion.Thanks. Let me see how it's done.

Re: alllightson In response to my ''jibberish'' threads. In my response(#7) I apologized for posting a thread that was confusing. I stated that I was unaware that this was wrong. I also thanked the members that brought the problem to my attention. To those whose reactions might be considered...

Re: alllightson My apologies for the thread title. I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up. Thanks,as well, for the suggestions.

When I turn the headlights on the cowls are also on. There seems to be just a high beam even when I switch to low beam. Basically all the light are on when I move the headlight/ cowl light switch. But the taillights never go on but the brake lights work. Where does one begin to unravel this ...

31flamingo#13...Thank you. I would never have thought of that!

ALMOST FORGOT. Do I need any gas resistant packing grease when the manual gas valve is reinserted into the tank or is the pipe thread sufficient? Thanks.

Thank you all so much for your help!

SeaSlugs..reply#2 Are you thinking that the debri caused both the manual and electronic shut offs to fail? Thanks for the reply.

T.Wesenberg reply#3.. Forgive my ignorance but what does ''lapped the tank valve'' mean? I'm going to replace the manual gas shut off valve because I suspect their isn't a screen on it otherwise how could debri get past. Thanks.

Last fall before storage I closed the shut off valve and ran the engine until it sputtered. (I also have an electronic shutoff). Two days later noticed carb was leaking. I let it leak all winter. Yesterday I cleaned out the sediment bowl, drained the tank ,refilled and drained several more times...

Where are you shipping this car from and to? Do you want a closed or open trailer?

Thanks. I might go out to the dreaded Wal Mart and see what they have.

ODfever...Does this console screw to the floor? Thanks.

I have a ''no name''carb. It was leaking a bit so put in new gaskets. It still leaks, maybe a tablespoon 24-36 hours. Sometimes more. I've made no other corrections: adjust float, float valve, etc. When I shut it down for the winter I ran it out of gas, closed the gas shut off switch and closed...

Thanks for the thoughtful replies. There still seems to be, in general, a negative reaction to Chinese manufacturing regarding automotive parts. That's why I was looking for some ''real proof'' rather than anecdotal comments.( I suppose anecdotal could be interpreted as real proof). If I...

I just received a complete set of wheel bearings and see they are made in China. Brattons sells U.S. and Mexico made wheel bearings. I was going to return the Chinese products but would like to know if anyone out there can give me some real proof that it makes a difference. Thanks.
