Most of the people who helped me with this 25 Touring, I met through this site. Jeff Humble, Don Booth, Mike Catlin, Denny Newman.

I noticed one error. That was that the 6 volt battery under the seat powers the flywheel mounted magneto. That is not correct. The 4 ignition coils can be powered by either the battery or the magneto. The position of the original ignition switch with the top of the key to the left is battery and when the top is to the right it is magneto. Never connect the battery directly to the magneto or it will de-magnetize the magnets and the magneto will no longer work.

Norm, I noticed that as well. He's a writer and driver, not a T owner. He misquoted me at least once. I told him that our 27 Fordor was obsolete when it was built, and he wrote that all Ts were obsolete when mass production began.

They're all obsolete when driven off the dealer lot.

Obsolete, derided, rediculed, cussed at all thru time...
Some look at those traits with eyes of disdain...
We look at them with loving eyes as simply their forgivable personality traits!

A non T writer with a non T audience, nobody is going to notice.
