It takes a lot to move all six wheels at the same time, especially if the grease is a touch old and stiff. Since the rotation of the speedometer cable doesn't stop, something has to give. It could either strip the cogs or move it back out of gear. The back popped out and the gear released. I...

Garwood, I'll see you there. Planning to drive my 31 Tudor down from Grand Haven. It is a great event and the Museum and the surroundings are wonderful. You can't go wrong with the Model A days at Hickory Corners!

715 miles and every single one enjoyable!

The light is installed behind the dash panel with the screw in the middle of the dash going through the round hole on the light. The square hole fits into an indentation on the dash to keep the light from turning. The wire from the light should be pointed left (towards the steering wheel)...

Are you saying that the cam in the distributor isn't turning? Did you check the screw to make sure it was tight? The cam is driven from the oil pump through two shafts and they are keyed together. There is no way that those will break in normal use. If the screw at the top of the cam isn't...

No, I don't have LED brake lights. Would a combination of LED brake lights and regular cowl bulbs create enough resistance to allow the 535 flasher to work? If it would work, it would be a simple and elegant solution.

Thanks Badpuppy for your suggestions. I hadn't thought about the power source and that is where I will start the corrective measures.

This is not a new problem, there were a lot more important things to address when I got the car, but it is now time to address this issue. I have tried a couple of different flashers (535) with no change.

Signalstat 900, cowl lights, stop lights turn signals. This is the set up. The turn signals work great if the brakes are not applied. The flasher hesitates and comes back to operation slowly when the brakes are applied with the bulbs never lightning fully. Why would this be? The system is 6...

You are a lucky guy!! A "mail slot" in the hood is not an easy thing to repair.
