    Model A clutch

    While driving, there should not be contact between bearing and fingers. Make sure you have some free play in the clutch-pedal before there is some drag. I doubt you will find new fingers to fit your plate. I got 3 (Model-A) pressure-plates and all parts are different (not interchangeable)...

    Radiator update

    I lately opened (Dremel) the top of my old radiator. 80% of the channels are clogged which might be a reason for overheating :D . Attached pic (into the top of the radiator) to make visible what Bill is talking about.

    The rivetet version is not to be rebuilt !!! Once you see damage , there is no doubt... Test (if you see no damage): Hold the U-joint at one end and shake it. Once it wobbles without resistance and you hear noises.... ITS TIME TO REPLACE ! The "new" parts to be sold by the vendors are not...
