“The Beginners Guide To The Model ‘A’ Ford”. Printed in WA and sent straight to your door.
A/4 size (11 ¾” x 8 ¾”) book with 90 pages, every page in color, with many, many photographs of parts and vehicles, accompanied by descriptive easy to understand text. Spiral bound to lie flat.
This very helpful book covers all the subjects a beginner wants to know: How to start and drive the car, maintenance including lubrication. What are those levers behind the steering wheel for? What is my cars body style and in what year was it assembled? Changing the oil. Double clutching. Car safety checks. Changing a wheel and installing a tire on a rim. Descending steep grades, Steering box, and shock absorber maintenance and adjustment. Getting technical including the following - - Fixing a gas gauge leak. Zenith carburettor operation. The electrical system explained with wiring charts for LHD and RHD. Timing the engine. Wheels and tires. Lowering the top on an open car. The two types of clutches. Trouble shooting section.
Many questions answered simply:
Why is my Model ‘A’ harder to steer than my modern car?
Why is the brake pedal harder to use than my modern car?
What is the choke lever and how do I use it and what does it do?
How do I start the car from cold?
How do I change a tire if I have a flat?
How do I jack the car up safely to change a tire?
How do I operate the lights?
What is a grease gun and is it dangerous?
How do I change the oil myself or do I need a mechanic to do this?
How do I grease the car myself or do I need a mechanic to do this?
How do I adjust the ride of my car? It is riding too hard and I feel all the bumps in the road.
Why should I keep a safe and fair distance from the car in front of me?
