by Grit KidWhy would the engine die at a sudden abrupt stop? It did start back up but, after that happening, it seemed the idle was way too low and a few miles later, it cut out a couple of times and it died again at a regular stop....

by Ray HortonThis engine, with only 4000 miles on it since rebuild, has always overheated and locked up when shut down after overheating, which is usually when driven at 45 or less for 30 minutes or more. (This did not and does not happen when driven under 35 and/or just around town for less than 45 minutes). I thought I had this problem fixed. But apparently not.
Here is the history: On 3/16/14 I...-

by poochAs I asked Mitch to make this forum, I suppose I had better put this first post in.
I am a 28/29 Model A addict.
I had a stocker, but where I live, it is too dangerous to drive a slow car.
This is my third A rod, and it turned out to drive just how I hoped it would.
The only thing I have to do now is remove the rear buggy...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

my friend was told to not push your car over 50 mph when it’s really hot out.? The only reason I can think of is being worried of a poor cooling system.?
the other one was don’t drive at the same rpm for long stretches. Makes no sense to me, unless the engine isn’t broken in.
On the same note, 20 years ago i pulled up to a display show our club was doing, and retarded the spark for...-

I do not want to get into bashing people. So I,m going to say the model A engine is one of the hardiest to get right when rebuilding them. You could do 2 chev small blocks or Ford small block to 1 model A engine, that is if you do it right. Every one always says how simple they are. But they are not simple to get right....

by Denis4x4As an old hot rodder, I never consider a car is ever finished. To that point, here are the modifications that I've made to the A engine in my roadster over a 26 year period.
The engine in my avatar was built in May of 1931 and rebuilt in August of 1992. At the 2015 Speedster Reunion, this engine in my Zipper roadster registered 60HP @ 3500 RPM's at the rear wheels. It's been in and...-

by pAAtYesterday I cleaned out Fred's new forever housing and moved him in. Can't wait till he can get around on his own power. He will get a temporary engine today, if I can get motivated enough. I have a question on installation- Do I get the tranny set where it will be mounted with engine in or have it tilted up higher to ease the slide in ? This will be my first banger install, but not my last. Any...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

by AyyyThe Model A engine is typical of other cars of the era in that they provide a mechanism(s) to preheat the air/fuel mixture. In their day it was necessary to pre-heat due to the low volatility of fuels. With today's volatile fuels (for better or worse), are the pre-heat systems really necessary, or even desired, for a Model A? Cooler air is more dense than warm air, so more power could be obtained...
