I am using this video as an accuracy reference for a romance novel I'm writing. In the current scene the main male protagonist, who is a mechanic, is working on a 1914 model T and I just want you to know that thanks to your video I have accurate information on how it works. thanks!

That's a first - do I get an autographed copy when it's done? I'm sure you know that's a 25 and there are many differences between it and a 14 - but changing the oil is the same.

@ the differences are lost on me but the basic process of changing the oil is described richly, and if the thing ever makes it to publishing you’ll be the first 👍🏻

You should use your other hand to spin out the plug. Not as messy to your hand. Also , before you put the drain plug in, dump a new quart of oil in the filler pipe to flush the old oil out of the dip tray

This looks like a better version of the same thing. www.amazon.com/Trouble-Handheld-Battery-Operated-Flashlight/dp/B075CCYJLY/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3PEB2GMO17DJ2&keywords=led+trouble+light+battery+powered&qid=1652020726&sprefix=led+trouble+light+battery+powered%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-5

What is that Red container on the fire wall
@Gen3AntiqueAuto2 жыл бұрын
That injects oil into the intake to lube the top ring and valves. I have some for sale if you're interested.

Is that what the copper tube is that goes to that fitting on the side of the intake? On my 26 I have a fitting right there but capped off and always wondered what it was for.

So you're injecting transmission fluid...

Model Ts didn't come equipped with oil filters, did they? If so, then changing oil on a Model T has to be easier.

no filter!

Seems like you’ve had a lot of practice with these old Velocipedes. 😜

You think? :)

A velocipede is an 18th century, foot propelled bicycle. I'm interested in what weight of oil you were putting in your '25. My '27 still has its Rebuilders Lube, and purportedly hasn't been started since it was parked in a barn, in 1932. I have heard of others putting straight 40 in the summer and straight 30, in the cooler months. Others have said 0w -. I like your choice.
