That device will tell you when a coil is bad if you get no sparks. I cannot tell you the coil has a good capacitor! There is no capacitor tester on this device. If the capacitor was not important, the coil would not have one! Henry was not one to hang on the bells and whistles on his T parts. No ar...

Two cents of unwanted comment. Over the years I have set and been satisified with adjusting colis as needed with the traditional "Buzz Box Tester." If you have the funds then purchase the electronic tools. Unless there has been a total up grade of the Coil/mechanical timer for ignition the adjustmen...

Here is my two cents to the discussion.

Generally flaps ate used to prevent chaping of the intertube against the spokes in the rim.
There was a discussion in 2016.

To ask this question again - " what is the proper range for the Model T? And how hot is too hot?" There is push back on using 100% ethylene glycol (green) for cooling. That is - operating a T Motor at sea level and at 70 degrees F. - 21 C.. What is the safe temperature a motor should operate if the ...

""What is the alternative to distilled water? Tap water? Puh-leeze. In most places the mineral content of tap water makes it a bad choice. In the approximate center of the lower 48, a 50-50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water works for me.""

The water from a dehumidifier?

Another topic that brings out comments. I live in central Pennsylvania, and the winter temperatures are generally not to unbearable....I run in the T with 100% of the green stuff (since 1959) with no water and have not had an issue. Either freezing or over heating. And yes there is a water pump. And...

From June 2022 when the Coupe turned 100 years.

Of course, the use of baling wire and small finishing nails work too.

This discussion begs the question to be answered for me, when was the HCCT for this discussion last calbrated?

Find a dealer in Pennsylvania - (Interesting that all the original dealership buildings are still standing and in use) Huntingdon Daily News (Pennsylvania) News from 1922 Sept. 27, 1922 Charles Huston & Brother Open Ford Agency This Week — Charles Huston and Brother this week opened their temporary ...

We all know what is coming -- but will not admit it!

The future of the history of the Model T.

As Allan suggest -- by artificial insemination.

FYI

OT George how come you are posting under a new account?

Well, fair question. - I am computer challanged, and that being said, forgotten pass words, failure of Microsoft 10/11 saving pass words, and just memory loss.

Interesting responses. Worried about privicy? With the internet and a list of forum members names, I would say those worring about privicy are late to the discussion. Again thanks for the response. The book - From Here to Obscurity: An Illustrated History of the Model T Ford, 1909 - 1927 - is on tar...

Every so often on the forum someone will ask how they can find the linage of their particular car. Post 1915 to 1927. https://mtfca.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=39862 So why hasn/t there been an effort to document current extant Model Ts? A register. Granted to go back to the day the vehicle was drive...

"I have an old ledger from a Ford dealership in Tenn."

So with a bit of free time and a few years of travel, an ambitious researcher could add an appendex to the Model T Bible by collecting and compiling all the dealer records in private collections.

Or Not.

FYI https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-resources/popular-topics/production-records Which models have production information available? In the summer of 1970, a museum fire destroyed many Ford Motor Company production records. The table below indicates which records still e...

Good luck on this search. Unlike realestate and houses, DOTs do not have a good record keeping on older motor vehicles. It is easier to track the history of your home than your car. Unfortunately no carfax on vintage automobiles. Reason suggestions be made on the few - this case Model Ts - remaing v...

Check float level. Check float for leak, float may be lower that spec.
