Default Re: Rodding out a radiator

The little 1" or so thick, black paperback Model T Manual, "Model T Ford Service -- Detailed Instructions for Servicing Ford Cars", sold by parts vendors describes this radiator tank removal & cleaning procedure in detail.

There are many simple & easy to understand mechanical procedures & tips described in this little Model T manual that were never repeated in later Model A repair literature.

The trouble shooting part in the rear of this manual could apply to many internal combustion engines.

The interesting part in this manual is the Time Study with the ridiculously small amounts of time allowed for each mechanical procedure like:

A Ford mechanic should be able to completely remove a Model T differential, completely overhaul it, & completely re-install same within 3 hours & 28 minutes.

Please don't try to compete with any of Ford's mechanical procedures within Ford's Time Limits ......... unless if you have an experienced cardiologist as a helper with a fully equipped emergency ambulance parked in your driveway. LOL
