Model T transmission thrust issue

My Model T is a 1917, and it has a large brass bushing inside the brake drum. I don't have the three steel washers in there. My question is when I check for thrust, I am getting 9 on the dial indicator. The manual calls for 15, 27 thrust. But is that only for the years with the 3 steel washers.

1926 Model T sediment bowl

Quick question, on the 26 sediment bowl the valve should face down to get the flow of fuel. There is a little hole inside on the shaft and that should face down correct.

Re: New Brassworks Radiator

It is leaning towards the back. You can see on the hose there is a little bump there. Also the hood is a little tight, now that you mention it. Maybe it is a simple fix, I will keep you posted. I will pull the car out tomorrow and take some pics.

I remember now the radiator support rod I used was one that you take off the shelf. I had trouble putting it on then. I think it is a little short. ...
