Over the past few weeks, I noticed old Liz was starting to develop a misfire, which at first, I thought was one of her coils beginning to fail. However, upon testing each coil myself, and taking them to visit a fellow Model T enthusiast with his 1914 Touring, running his car on my coils, revealed that there was nothing wrong with them. Still, to be on the safe side, I bought some additional coils from him, so I had some spares!
Fast forward, I've been busy replacing (and cleaning) the coil contacts where needed, and while I was at it, replaced my rather shabby looking porcelain insulators.
Re-connecting everything back up, and... well you'll have to watch the video and see!
