Suggest removing the socket and lightly sanding the area where the socket rim makes contact with the socket and the socket rim itself.

General Discussion / Orphan Car Meet - Morgantown, PA

« on: March 17, 2024, 10:53:45 AM »

There is an upcoming, July 23-27, 2024, orphan car show and swap meet at the Classic Auto Mall, Morgantown, PA (classicautomall.com), in south central PA. The Studebaker Drivers Club (SDC) Atlantic Zone is the sponsor. This will be an indoor swap meet and car show within a very large building. I am in KFOCI and SDC. We invite orphan car owners to attend and show their vehicles. My '54 Kaiser Special will be in the show. There will be parts vendors, local tours, and food. The host hotel, Holiday Inn, is attached to the Classic Auto Mall. Hotel phone is 610-286-3000 with a $109 rate (good until 7/1/24). Entry is free to the auto mall.

Contact for the meet and show is Jim Sinclair, 717-413-8157. I would like to get a flyer and notice for the meet into our next bimonthly K-F-W magazine. Information with how to do that would be appreciated. Would also appreciate help in getting this information out to other KFW owners who aren't regularly using this website (e.g., facebook users). Thank you, Bob Godwin

Had to be stressful to solve the problem, but your details on cause and solution make great reading. Glad you got it free.

Great that you solved the problem. Vapor lock or a factor causing fuel starving is wonderful to correct!

General Discussion / Re: Sagging Leaf Spring Assist

« on: March 21, 2023, 08:49:17 AM »

Sorry do not have helpful info for this, but maybe a little humor. First Kaiser was a '52 Manhattan. Right rear spring broke. Got one rear spring from a parts-yard out of a '51. Got it installed and that side of the rear was higher than the other. Went and got the other spring. Now the rearend was level side to side, but the car leaned forward significantly from back to front! Drove it for another year before selling it.
