Model T Ford Ignition System Animation

[@robbwolff1621]

Nicely done. The hobby is in good hands.

How did you get an animation of Steve Jelf to show how the electrical system works?! 😎

Back in the 70’s you could buy an old vibrator coil for a few dollars. They made a great high voltage source for a Christmas present. Who else built one? We used 3 rolls of rubber tape on it because it might get tossed when you handed it off and pressed the button. Lol

Starting the Model T can be challenging, but _DRIVING_ one is an Olympic sport for the uninitiated! It is WAY more driver-intense than modern cars. But the beauty is that they are super easy to work on and surprisingly rugged.

Neat video, interesting to look at and easy to follow. I know people say the Model T is simple, but I would challenge any of them to come up with and actually make a working substitute using only the knowledge in their head.

Bob looks like Scott from Coldwarmotors youtube channel. He also owns a model T.

Too bad they didn't show one of the coils and how they have a little set up points that you have to just once in awhile

I was wondering how does the magneto system in Ford Model T dont shock the driver it is ac current right? And what about the baterry why it does not get flown up be over chargeing it???

[@thomasschwarting5108]

Sounds like some of the equipment that the Air Force had. They had powered ground equipment and some of the machines had igniters similar to what you're describing.

I like what u have done. It is a good explanation. The Model A pipe behind the carb could be removed. Wonder what your next video will be???

I laughed when I saw his arm in a sling looks like the crank bit him.

[@DHW256]

And, apparently, he was cranking it with the wrong arm! LOL
