I've been hearing a lot about this recently. Would it be better to buy a round distributor cap when I order a replacement? It would seem the fault is in the design of the standard winged caps. The...

Re: My A misses at cruising speed... Any ideas?
Haha, yeah you're right! A lot has been falling behind recently. The money needed to fund my addiction hasn't been good. I'll do a legit "tune up" and see if it still misses.

Re: A bad day with the "A"'s
When I first got my coupe I was taught to give it half hand throttle while starting.... well, that floods the crap out of it but at the time I didn't know it. I flooded it BAD at the local corner...

Re: A bad day with the "A"'s

Re: 1930 Coupe Aprons?
I would suggest removing the body mounts on one side and LOOSENING the other side. Push the body up and slide the apron out. Then put that sides bolts in loosely, and repeat for the other side. I say...
