Re: Pressure plate adjutant

So, why would Paul make all of the adjustment he did on the bench? Wouldn't it save time by just doing the adjustment one time when it is up with the flywheel?

But don't you have to make another adjustment when the flywheel is on? Or is my brain out of...

Re: Knocking. Valves?

Re: Distributor wiring

So, for example with Bobs chart in mind. What tests would you do if it were to read 10 ohms or 12 ohms? Where would you start?

Sorry, other than a nice looking undercarriage, it is too messed up for me.

Distributor wiring

In the latest Ford article it talked about eliminating the lower distributor plate.

Sounds good to me. Does anyone see a problem in doing this?

Re: engine compression levels.

52 is pretty good.

If you have a standard head the math would be:

4.2x14.7. About 60 lbs on a new engine.

Some say the formula should be 4.2x14.7+14.7.

Re: Front left wheel play

I agree with synchro. I would start by taking the drum off, inspect the bearings, grease the bearings, and then tighten the proper way to rule out the bearing.

If that didnt help then look to the...

Re: Google " Model T Transport "

You don't bend an axle on
a Model A or a Model T by
winching a free rolling vehicle
in or out out of a trailer.

Double ditto from me!
