Re: Tinnitus while driving the Roadster
Mine was a chirping sound that turned out to be the starter bendix gear was rubbing on the flywheel when running due to the tiny spring that rides in the spiral groove was missing.

Re: Tinnitus while driving the Roadster
Phenomenom: Seems most Model A noises start above 45 M.P.H. Maybe that's why most cars have that "SWEET SPOT" at 45 M.P.H. Does anyone ever eliminate all those noises? Bet customers drove the mechanics crazy when they were new!! Bill W.

Re: Tinnitus while driving the Roadster
With my '28, the horn-rod buzzes / rattles pretty bad between about 40 & 50 MPH... when your noise starts, try gently pulling-up or pushing down on the tail of the headlight switch and see if the noise changes...
