Re: Brake adjustment
I found after adjusting as best I could, that taking the rig on a gravel road, get it going maybe 10 or so mph, then slam on the breaks. The skid marks tell you how well you adjusted the breaks.

Re: Huckster windshield
I think I would try somehow to trim the wood. But like mention, you need to be good with wood.

Re: Jerky Runner
Thanks, good information.
I use no crap gas in my rigs and that seems to work out great. So I think in the future I do need to use the MMO as you mentioned. Because I do leave my rigs in the shop...

Re: Jerky Runner
Well I took the old jerky runner out for a drive today. About 2 weeks after the MMO treatment in the cylinders. It started better than it ever did, after warming up (46 degrees around here today)...

Re: Jerky Runner
I also think I need to change the engine oil after this situation because I did put a liberal amount of MMO in the spark holes. I am sure a lot of it got in the engine oil. Maybe that is good for...

Re: Jerky Runner
Mark, the MMO idea sounds good. Will have to do. But I think the parades may go. Hard on the old rig, clutch etc. So think I will watch parades instead of being in them!

Re: Timing/Spark control arm
On my two "29" A's, the spark lever notch arms seem to be different. One is much longer than the other. Is this the difference between a 28/29 and a 30/31? I think maybe my 29 std coupe may have a...

Re: Where to start?
BTW Les Andrews book 1 is a good one to get. It gives you basic stuff about an A. Most arts vendors carry it.
