thanks i will look at mine, 3 mm is not much is it

can anybody tell me the thickness of the drum where the linings rub, i think mine are very thin

so car now starts on the Button with new batteries and a rewire and it charges so thats good, drove it out of the garage and the brakes are useless is there a special way to set them up? i have put new linings on so that does not help maybe they where not good from new!!

when i found the original front mat in my Maxwell i thought i would try and get some copies made but i could not find anyone that could make it, so i found a firm in Plymouth UK that was able to do a computer drawing of it and print it onto some 3 mm vinyl its never going to be the same but better than wood flooring, i will have to age it a bit, if you can zoom in you can see the patterns, i will have to age them and bend the front one

i have finally sorted out the wiring on my car, i had to put 2 cutouts in the system as it has 2 circuits, i had to use 3 wiring diagrams and the patent papers for the original switch as my car is not supposed to have a starter and lights has anyone a picture of the Dry Cells thanks

i have a genuine 1914 car it has the ignition/transformer coil on it , i know this is going back a bit but do you want a decent picture if i can get it off? pete

i have a list of serial numbers from 1914 to 1926 not sure where i found it do you want a copy put on here pete

And A stands for? ammeter i should know that, any way took all the wires off and started again its all working the starter push was seized but i have freed it and it turns the engine ok, and i have all the lights etc working i need to run it and see if its charging and work out if that round thing under the seat is a regulator

i think the whole car is genuine, they just cut the wires and disconnected the starter and used one six volt battery and a switch for the coil and used the handle i am going to disconnect every thing and just work out how the starter works then connect it so it will start and work the lights etc. i know now that i do not need a lot of the original wires i have done this in the past best to start again and fix what is needed pete

i have just printed out all of the info on that link, loads of spelling mistakes but i think i can work it out pete

at least you are honest and telling it like it is, i will have to sit down by the car and work it out, i still have all of the cables and most of the bits associated with the mag on the car so maybe i can trace it all back thanks for you help if i get it to work i will let you know pete

from the link you sent what are A and P as i said the cables on my car are connected differently to the diagrams Thanks Pete

yes and no the wires on these pictures are not the same position as mine but i will ut able to sort it out with luck thank you

any body got an exploded view of this starter switch i cannot get any power through it Thanks pete

yep that is great thanks, i do not have a magneto so its not needed pete
