AzBob Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Have you contacted Roger or Erik Barrett? I obtained a number of parts from them for my 1926-26.

hidden_hunter Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 we did find the repro quite difficult to get in the right spot, and were running warm as a result It also had a tendency to push itself on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Delbert Stallings Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I Finally have a manifold had the heat riser cross over blocked, radiator shop cleaned and ok,ed radiator, but it gets hot, water pump is leaking. Do I rebuild it. And how. Thank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I also cleaned my head and block. Flushed it repeatedly. My pre winter season service this year I put in "evapo-rust". It worked great for a final cleaning on my 1937. Ran to Nashville TN and back during 95 degree weather. The water temp stayed at 160 most of the trip. So I will see what the spring brings. Prior to all this my radiator guy said my radiator was also clean. Still the car overheated. Not until I had a new core made was the problem solved. I still have to get to redoing my water pump as it is pretty scored. I can drive around town all week and a drip or 2 will show up. But on a long hot drive the packing nut loosened up after a 50 mile trip. Water was pouring out of the packing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank The general concensus seems to be that you should see the odd drip from the gland in the water pump (out the front of the shaft) Be very very very very (and I can't stress this enough) careful if you're looking for replacement parts for the water pump, we found that there is at least 3 variants for 1926 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
