Re: '26 Ford T

It was the spark plugs causing it to run on 3 cylinders. That and the play in the commutator rod.

Thanks to those of you who had something to say.

Re: '26 Ford T

Okay, so I did all of that above mentioned stuff. My question now is: The commutator roller inside the cap. At what position should that be while on Top dead Center?
Thank you.

Re: 26 Model T (High Gear/clutch forks)

Oh! I forgot to mention, the rear end has never been apart since we've owned it...since 1964-65ish.

Do you think maybe the thrust plate might cause this problem?

Re: 26 Model T (High Gear/clutch forks)

Okay....
The engine runs great! It is possible the rear brakes might be dragging....It's hard to push while in neutral.

There is also a lot of horizontal play (1/4 inch) at the rod which holds the clutch forks. When releasing into high gear, the "fork rod" moves almost a quarter of an inch side to...

26 Model T (High Gear/clutch forks)

I would like to know that if my clutch forks are worn out, would that cause the car to jerk/pulsate when in high gear going down the road?

It just seems like the high gear is not fully engaging?

Re: NO START Problem

Make sure the ignition wire spring under distributor plate is free from debris and lubed enough to spring in and out.
