4AD thermostat?
My 1952 4AD (1849V) came with an adapter plate in which the thermostat is mounted between the adapter plate and the engine block. The plate is about 3/4" thick and has a machined recess for the thermostat. My later model 1953 4ADT (2848W) however, came with a housing that was modified (probably...

4AD Oil Flow through Filter
Both of my 4ADs came with poorly fitted oil filter cartridges. I have been able to find the proper oil filter cartridges from three different manufacturers. However, each filter comes with a different set of gaskets. This raised several questions that I am hoping someone can help me with. What exact...

Solex Carburetor Vacuum Ports
Last night, Russell Natali and I were discussing a problem he is having with his 4ADT. His car runs fine on level ground, but stalls whenever he attempts to go up a hill. He says it seems to be starved for fuel. He is working on an alternate fuel pump as a possible solution but would welcome any sug...

4AD Gas Pedal?
My 1952 4AD came with a roller on the end of the accelerator linkage. On most cars, you would expect a gas pedal hinged at the floor to move against that rolller. My car has no signs of ever having a gas pedal. My 1953 4ADT doesn't even have the roller on the linkage. Are 4ADs supposed to have gas p...

Mike, I have a similar plumbing arrangement to you, with a second fuel pump in the rear, pushing instead of sucking. I also have a slight leak at the side of the carburetor where the throttle shaft goes into the carburetor. My pressure runs 2-3 psi. That is why I asked the question about what is sui...

Steve, As I was rebuilding my own front brakes, I ran across something I thought I would pass along. On the front brake shoes, if you compare all four, you will notice that two of the shoes have pins on one side and two have them on the other side. When the shoes are installed these pins must engage...
