    re: “being in gear” The parking brake (to left of pedals) is set fully forward, which puts it into high gear. Pull it back toward you half way for neutral or all the back to you to also engage the mechanical rear emergency brakes.

  • @allisonstilley9536
    @allisonstilley9536 Před 20 dny +10

    Still the undisputed champion at bringing old cars back to life... However the transmission is closer to tractor than automotive. The lever is "in gear" when it is all the way down, pulled up/back engages a mechanical park brake on the rear axle, "neutral" starts somewhere in the middle. The pedals are even more confusing at first because there's three of them. The left pedal is the forward "gears", pressed is low, released is high, and neutral is somewhere in the middle. Middle pedal is pressed by itself for reverse and otherwise left alone. The right pedal is pressed for the brake. It doesn't work the way you'd think either, instead it tightened a cloth strap around the output of the single planetary gear "transmission" to stop the car. Ford didn't start using a standard transmission until 1928 on the Model A. Hopefully this helps not only Mr. Jennings but also anyone who may get to drive one of these old girls.

    From a T Guy - couple bits of advice: 1. You are missing intake / exhaust rings / gaskets. You need these - or it'll leak air so bad thats why you are only running on two cylinders - you can also see leaks around the exhaust manifolds - so the intakes will leak too. 2. Check your plug wires as well - I think you may be firing on the coils but not at the plugs. 3. Head gasket! Need one. 4. Looked like a couple of those valves weren't closing on 3 and 4. Bands. Definitely need transmission bands to get it to move. All in all didn't hear any rod knocks - she'll run good once those issues are solved. Overall good job though! Check out my vids on my T I got running after it sat for 40 years or so! First start: czcams.com/video/xbdBkT_eUI0/video.html Couple weeks later with proper gaskets, coils, and wiring: czcams.com/video/eGeyF3_agIY/video.html

    Hi,I am surprised with your videos, in this particular one where I see a prostate exam in a car... I congratulate you for your interest in keeping alive the history of the cars that were part of our lives. Keep going.

    We had one these in our barn for years, as kids we would get it running, somehow, time after time after time, to drive it down the road at 2am to get more beer.
