Re: Holes drilled in dipper tray
My Grandfather was a mechanic at a Ford dealership when Model A's were new. My Dad started working with him as a teenager. My Dad told me the above was the reason for the holes in the tray.

Re: Winches to load a model a
Check the wires with a test light or meter to be sure, but the black should be the 12v charge wire. The center wire is usually used for backup lights.

Re: Resistor Mystery
Dave, if adding that one resistor to one light doesn't slow down the flashing it may be that you are not increasing the current enough. To check, add both resistors in parallel to one light. If that...

Gas Gauge Gasket
I've got a set of cork gaskets for the gas gauge that I purchased several years ago. I don't remember form where. They are too thick to get the index plate tab into the hole to start the nut over...

Re: Resistor Mystery
My curiosity got to me. I had to figure this out. I found this link with an explanation of the evolution of flashers. The one Dave has is a later one that can detect a burned out bulb and hyper...

Re: Resistor Mystery
Then my understanding and experience with thermal flashers is all wrong. When I was going to college I had a job with an RV dealer and wired up a lot of tow vehicles for trailers. The added current...

Re: Resistor Mystery
Dave,
Led's generally draw much less current than incandescent bulbs so the problem usually encountered with them is slow flashing. I don't understand why yours would be flashing faster if all...

Re: Resistor Mystery
If you add resistance in series with the brake/turn signal bulb/led you will decrease the current to the bulb. In series, resistance adds, and more resistance means less current. Less current...
