Another cheap Model T engine overhaul.

This is the engine for my 1913 Ford model T project car. It's had a low budget rebuild done before and, in this video, I correct a few things as I reassemble it.

DUDE! Please post more often. You're doing great.

Looks like a fine engine to me. I like the way T people seem to be so much more relaxed with a good sense of humor compared to A people. Perhaps thats why they don't worry so much about pawning their old cars off on the youth. Just let them come naturally. Good video as always

What a GREAT video ! Ive been wanting to sell my '26 for a few years now, but while watching this video, i want to head out to my freezing garage & start turning wrenches. I like your Schwinn Stingray, it looks just like the one i rode as a kid. Your bike, however, is like "Where's Waldo", 3:53 it's outside, ready to ride to 7-11. On the interior shots, starting at 00:01 it's hanging on the wall behind you

Yep, another cheap Model T engine overhaul. Sunday night just notched up from meh. Thank you! Hope you're doing well; keep up the "good" work (ha ha).

I have that same green Schwinn Sting Ray from my childhood in my garage.

Another good video. Thanks. You and I have the same idea around comfortable workshop footwear.

I always enjoy your videos. I also keep learning from them!

Great to see you making progress with your T engine. I am about to tackle my 1931 Model A engine.

I have an original copy of the book "Ford Methods and the Ford Shops", published in 1915. The steps for engine assembly are listed on pages 118 to 127. The last step, step 84, says "Paint motor - remove from line.". So in 1915 at least, workers were told to paint the motors. Of course, painting the engines may have been discontinued later in the name of efficiency.

What a great video how the engine has evolved over the years thank God for Henry Ford

OHSA approved flip flops. Always wanted to do up a T engine.

I overhauled my '26 for less than 100 bucks, new rings, valve job, we took a 2000 mile trip west to ND badlands, then Devil's Tower, then Rushmore, SD badlands, across SD to MN, unassisted and alone, that was 12 years ago, still runs great, 10-30 oil.

I agree with you about the authentic color. It looks right on!

Another great video.
Thanks for posting!

I fit rods and new main caps similarly and let them wear in. That's what the door is for on the bottom of the pan anyway. Besides as long as after warming up it doesn't sound like a threshing machine chewing on a piece of barbed wire to paraphrase Floyd Clymer it is probably OK. With a T it is important to distinguish noises it should and shouldn't be making. 😀

super good. Much appreciate the effort.

Great video! The old cam gear looked like one of the infamous fiber gears that tend to strip out. Being helical cut gears, I wonder if the crank and cam gears should be meshed, and then slipped on together, kind of like a double roller timing gear set on a more modern V8.

The lack of cam gear play might be down to bad alignment upon re-boring the main bearings.
It's just plastic, it'll wear in.

Thank you for posting this video. I have a question about where you came up with the engine stand adapter. That looks like a good one. I'd make one if I had measurements.
