If you are experiencing recurring overheating issues, I would think your radiator must not be up to snuff. Also make sure you set your timing as per Marco's website instructions. An engine that is too far retarded can really heat up. Sorry to hear about your on going problems, it is never any fun going back to fix something that you thought you just fixed. Try not to get too discouraged, Model As certainly do have the ability to be dependable. We have one that has been in the family for over 45 years now, it sees a few hundred miles per year and the engine nor radiator has ever been out or opened up since '67. I was having some troubles with it at one time, but Marco's timing instructions were the miracle cure.
