What is it supposed to sound like?
I have a running chassis that I need a Model A expert to listen to when running. I do not know whatare normal sounds: at idle-acceleration or high speed. I live in the Minneapolis-St. Paul , Minnesota area. Will some one come ride with me?

My non original car still has the feel of an A but not the distinctive idle sound. ...but it still makes me happy when driving it. |

Re: What is it supposed to sound like?
On the first video near the end, did you notice how labored the acceleration sounded?
That's due to late timing. He had the timing retarded to show the low RPM sound, but he didn't advance it for the normal running and acceleration. |
