My new Air Filter issue

[Duffy1]

I close the fuel shut off in line valve when I stop . The only problem with this is sometimes ( mostly when I am in a hurry and my wife is late ) I forget to open it . Know a lot of folks who install an electric shut off valve to circumvent this problem . I may install one if my memory gets worse.

Since I polished my gas valve and original carb needle and seat with toothpaste, they have both been holding perfectly. I turn the valve off if I'm going to be stopped for more than a few minutes.

You are better off without any air filter, I believe that they cause more problems than they solve with an updraft carburetor. I've run model A's for over fifty years without a filter and have had no related problems.
