Default Re: Hello from Upstate NY with my 1930 Model A

Here are two more tips:

These cars HAVE to have Great grounding for them to work properly. If there is any corrosion on the ground it will make things hard on her. So check the battery to ground and maybe add another from tranny to frame.

Since you have a wireless dist. Check the lower plate to make sure that the upper plate has not gouged it and is grounding. I never had that problem but some have.

And for the ca me into the dist. You only need to thread it in a few turns until you get contact. After that you risk the grounding issue.
