Answers to a lot of questions regarding 1929 Hudson Town Sedan

Hi AAron

Will try to assist re questions of Forum so all can see.



Question 2, Proper Spark Plug wires are avaible from Dave Kostansek

and his ads are in the WTN, he has Black and also yellow wires, ask

which are proper for a 1929

Question 3. I would suggest not removing the water pump at this time

the radiator , front cover and timing chain need to be removed, its a

big job. I suggest backing the nuts off the shaft as much as possible

and cleaining the rust off the shaft and putting teflon seals on shaft

then see how much it leaks, use water in engine as antifreeze is messy

and cover the paint to keep coolant off of it. If leaks too much then

contact Warren Bachtel who was at tech session re removal and seals

Question 4. After removing all choke, accelerator linkages, then

remove two bolts holding the carb onto the Heat Tube. There is no

connection between the heat tube lever and linkage to the carb.

Probably the carb is stuck to the heat tube, spray with penetrating oil

and tap lightly with a light hammer and screw driver where the carb and

Heat tube join. Easy go old parts. The carb should sepearate and there

is a copper gasket which can be reused.

Question 5, Use goggles, put a lot of newspapers on the floor, and try

engine degreaser spray and a parts cleaning brush to clean up.

Some carb spray will help too. Use a air nozzel to blow out debris

and remember its all flamible and not to use a shop light with bulb

use a sealed Floresent.

Send me a email ( my address on my card) will work on other items

you ask about. Need your address so can send Rose pattern pic
