Thank you both !!!

Sorry, I have now a question. How do you explain that if I keep pushing the clutch pedal, the engine does not stop. Thank you !

Good suggestions. Thank you !!!

Hi all I hope I can explain myself. On my 1929 Ford A Tudor , his engine stops when I brake and gear to neutral and take my feet off the clutch pedal on a downhill street. If I keep my feet pushing the clutch pedal the engine idle as expected. The car starts immediately and drive smoothly after...

Fixed, thank you !!! On the way you suggested that I quoted. Here are some images.

fixed, thank you.

Hi, I am assuming this is what you mean - remove that nut and take that bolt out? Is there anything else I should be aware of, like anything that should be loose / disengaged before removing that bolt and sliding the lever?

Thank you for your fast answer. My son, to whom I sent my Ford A from FL, went ahead and took out the floor mat and send me the below images. We think that those 2 pieces are disengaged. The kind off "hook" needs to engage the piece that is below with "teeths". If we are correct, that piece have...

Hi, sorry for my lack of a better technical language. As the title says, the emergency brake handle suddenly stop working. The car left Florida with all working. Sent to MA in an enclosed truck of a professional car transportation company. At arrival, the emergency brake was not working at all...

For mice I use plastic containers (Tupperware) with holes on the lid and cotton inside cover with water, to which I pour a nice amount of peppermint oil. Place 2 per car inside and 2 underneath. I Leave the cars (2) in that way the full winter inside the barn. No mice nests at all and they...

Thank you for this tip !!!!

Thank you for this recommendation!!! Daniel

Hi Jim Thank you very much for this long answer. I really do not have experience on this topic. Last time I sent a car to Florida was 20 years ago (son's used car) in a standard transportation company and all went fine. Nevertheless, I see you do transport cars. Can you PM me so we can chat...

Hi Soon I will be relocating from Massachusetts to Florida. I have a Tudor 1929 and a Mercury 1956 to relocate. Any one would like to recommend me a car transportation company you have used? I think the Model A needs to go covered . Any tip and recommendations will be very welcome...

Thank you Ruth !! I will remember this tip

Yes, I topped it a few weeks ago, before a 70 miles round trip. Thank you for your your answer. It relax me that there isn't a connection with my water pump greasing. Could be the hot day (90f) in MA today, with that topping, are the cause. Just scare the hell out of me because I greased...

Hi all Today I finally added the grease to the water pump. My last step for this year maintenance. Went for a ride. Did 5 miles and when I stopped the engine back on my garage the radiator drainage tube started to drain the cooling fluid. Could be around 1-2 glasses of water. To give an idea...

Thank you !! I will. I ordered the Snyder's water pump grease. Arriving this Friday. I will buy a new grease pump only for this grease that i will also use on the chasis. For the water pump I will first try the Finger Loading Technique and see how that results. Best !! Daniel

Thank you for the tip !!!. I read that others just unscrew the grease fitting and add the grease with the finger to pack the grease and avoid over-greasing. If I do not find what I am looking for and I end using a "water proof grease" from the model A vendors or just the Marine lube many use...

Thank you !! I have read about K-Y and I will give a thought to it. I wasn't able to find d the pictured lub cup that you mentioned. Probably I did a wrong search among the Model A vendors. I will try again tomorrow. Thank you again for the tip !! Daniel
