Re: My "new" '27 Model T Sedan... what to do?
The levers on the column are, left - the spark (sets timing) up to start - down to run. The right one is the accelerator up is idle.
The hand brake lever is rear wheel brake -on all the way back, half way up disengages the clutch & brake, all the way forward puts you in high gear.
Right pedal is the foot brake - acts on a band in the transmission
Center pedal is reverse - hand brake 1/2 way back -press the center pedal & you will back up.
Left pedal is low & high gear. full down is low, 1/2 way up is neural, all the way up is high gear.
What you have is a 2 speed automatic transmission only you do the work of all the servos & governors.
