Re: 1931 Model A Clutch R&R

FYI, I bought all of the parts and I paid my local tranny shop $750.00 for the labor. I now have a brand new clutch that is great. My back couldn't do it.

Re: 31 A Submerged above Intake in Salt Water Thanks to "Sandy"

Motor runs great after lots of cleaning and new harness, starter, generator, etc.
My clutch is frozen and one wheel's brake shoes are frozen.
I will get to that on a warmer day.

Thanks

1931 Model A Clutch R&R

Do I have to pull the rear to do a clutch on my Model A or can I just pull out the shaft, drop tranny and do clutch like a newer car.

Thanks

Re: 31 A Submerged above Intake in Salt Water Thanks to "Sandy"

Then what is the best solvent to clean out of my motor all of the white oil so it causes no damage and stays oil color and removes all dampness internally?
Kerosene? Gunk? Carb cleaner? Gasoline?...
