Default Re: Starter Crank Hole Lubrication

Most folks that go to the Bensen Ford Research center are usually looking for references for books they want to write. DavidG on the V8 board has spent some time there but I think it was more convenient for him in location. His research was on the 1932 models among others. If I lived near Detroit, I'd certainly haunt them a time or two. The folks there will find information for people if they give them a specific request. There is a lot of stuff on line that can be accessed too.

Even with an oil hole there, the oil would be limited on how far it could go or what it could do to lubricate anything. Getting oil between the top leaf and the cross member would be about it. A person could do more by spraying the spring with oil on the front & rear sides where accessible.
