Re: Engine rust

Coating of what? Also, even after draining the engine, there is still a little left in the lower part of the block. I was wondering if there is an additive to add that would coat ?

Engine rust

On 2 of my A’s the rust inside the engine is so bad that even after flushing out, the water soon turns to a thick rust color. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Re: phaeton top

I talked to the person and would not consider it. Also said the bows had been in inventory for 30 years. They look new.

Re: 31 wiper location

apparently, the EA Lab motor does not have a switch on the motor. According to my Model a books, it was apparently one type used; but no mention about the switch. Makes you wonder where Ford put it.

With an ea lab. motor, does it mount on the outside or inside of the windshield? Also, where is the switch supposed to be?
