Wire wheels lug nuts torque #
I’m a 2 year owner of a 26T coupe with wire wheels. While waking her up for Spring I checked all of the wheel lugs and found several loose. I’m not sure how tight they should be. Is there a suggested torque # that is safe to use?

Re: Battery 12v shut-off switch
Again, thanks for all the great support and ideas. Now all I have to do is get it installed as I bought the heavy duty switch from Lange’s last year.

Battery 12v shut-off switch
I have a 1926 Ford Model T Coupe and have purchased a metal shut-off switch to disconnect all voltage when not in use. I’m not sure where to install it. Was thinking below driver’s side of the seat near and above the starter foot button. Any suggestions as to where, how, and which wires. Many thanks...

Throttle lever slipping
On my 1926 Ford Model T coupe the throttle lever slips down making an unwanted acceleration especially if I have hit a bump. The notches where the lever is supposed to click in are almost worn smooth. How do I fix it?
