Re: 1909-10 Brass Timer contact ring
If you have access to a mill and lathe you can make a contact ring out of a large bar of delrin. The cut outs for the contacts can be made with a keyway cutter. The moon shaped contacts made from steel bar stock drilled and tapped for the posts. Delicate work but doable.

1908 Model SR horn bracket
Unique to 1908 Model SR Fords per period price list, this original horn bracket came into my possession when I was collecting parts to complete a Model SR which I subsequently sold. I puchased the bracket on eBay for more than my $150 asking price. Price includes shipping. 20200828_132324.jpg Richar...

Re: Wanted N, R, S or SR
I have an 07 Model N that I puchased some years ago but never did anything with. As I am getting on in years I want to sell it . The car hasn't run in years. It was restored many years ago, the sixties or even before I'd guess. It is complete but the hood needs replacing as it is layered in bondo. I...

Re: Head Gasket Failures
Its not just the headgaskets! The copper clad manifold gaskets and the copper washers use what appear to be the same filler material. I had an intake leak I was unable to cure after six tries using one or the other. Finally resolved with period asbestos copper clad gaskets.

Re: RIP. Charlie Shaver. Forum Member
Just hard to believe. Had plenty of phone calls with Charley over the years. He wanted to pass on his secrets for changing a later block to a 1909 10 open valve but was disappointed when he learned I was damn near as old he was!

Re: Carb issues
Thanks for the input. I continue to work thru the vaccuum leaks. I am running a swaybuck NH carb allegedly restored but I have my doubts. I do hope it is a vaccuum leak issue and will clear up once I get that resolved. I have tried different needle and spark positions, also adjusted the float to whe...

Carb issues
When I am driving down the road and throttle down before coming to a stop, the engine rhythmically surges. Not heavy but noticeable. It doesn't do that when I increase the throttle above an idle position while still slowing down. It also doesn't do that with the car slowing down in neutral. I've not...

Re: Sticking valves?
Bruce the engine was finished initially in October. A total rebuild. When I ran it, I discovered the os pistons were hitting the head. I decided to remove the engine and go thru it again fearing the piston contact had bent the rods. I was right . Two of the four were bent so I realigned them. I beve...

Re: Intake Manifold Leak
I was advised to use carb cleaner and it worked. Ran the engine at high idle and sprayed where the manifold contacts the block. If there's a leak, you'll hear an obvious stumbling. Worked very well for me thanks to a suggestion from a forum member.

Re: Sticking valves?
All ideas/suggestions good food for thought. I'll check for a vacuum leak before I do anything. I rebuilt the engine last year and had the car running in October. I had to pull the engine because the .080 os pistons were hitting the head and I wanted to recheck all my work. Since 2 of the rods were ...

Re: Sticking valves?
Steve, I did best I could. Removed all the plugs, opened the throttle and hand cranked. I don't have a starter on the car. I went thru each cylinder 6 times to make sure I got the highest reading before moving to the next cylinder. I got readings varying between 42 and 60 psi. That may be indicative...

Sticking valves?
What are the symptoms of sticking valves? Unsuccessfully trying to diagnose rough idling and once smoke emanating from the throttle arm hole in the valve cover on a newly rebuilt engine. I've gone thru the coils, carburetor, timer, plugs, all the easy stuff to no avail. Car runs strong at higher rpm...

The cam is very easy to bend. No heat required. I used a medium size monkey wrench to straighten out the top where it rides against the bolt.

Thanks to all for the encouraging words! I contacted the painter and he recommended painting all the fenders. I said I'd leave it to his judgment. He comes highly recommended and I've seen his excellent work on a twenties/thirties Buick and a Model A pickup. I'm in the cue for new Rootlieb fenders b...
