Adjustments often are required to be altered so that memory slips again are valuable in that the original adjustment can be jotted down. Aside from the small boxes on top of the bench a large box should be placed underneath. This is to care for large parts such as intake and exhaust manifolds, connecting rods, the fan, the carburetor and other parts of the assembly. In other Avords, the large box receives parts of which there is no doubt as to location. System in removing parts will eventually lead to a saving of time when assembly is necessary. For example when the valve system is removed, the valves, the springs, spring seats and the holding pins should be kept together as shown in illustration Fig. 67, B. In removing bolts, the lock washer, the nut and every part belonging to Tig. 68.--The First Step in Removing the Ford Engine From the Chassis Is to Take the Radiator From the Front of the Frame. the bolt should be kept together as at Fig. 67, C. Slip the washer over the bolt and screw the nut in place and then throw the whole into the proper box. When the wrist pins are removed the clamp screw for holding the pin in place should be left in the hole in the connecting rod boss. When the manifolds are removed, instead of throwing the holding nuts into one box and the manifold in another, screw the nuts back onto the studs in the cylinder. The object of all this immediate replacement is to keep the parts as near to their proper places as possible so that when assembly begins the operator will not be in doubt as to where to look for a certain rod bolt or other part.

After the engine is removed the first step in taking it down is to release the fifteen cap screws which hold the Fig. 69.--Showing Method of Removing Copper Asbestos Gasket Used Between Cylinder Head and Cylinder Block Casting of the Ford Engine. cylinder head in place and take the head casting off. Next the bottom plate on the crank case is removed and all the connecting rods loosened up which permits of pushing the pistons out through the top of the cylinder if desired. The cooling fan and the fan belt are removed and placed with the radiator where they will be out of the way. At Fig. 68 the dash assembly is just loose enough to be raised from the frame when necessary and one of the workmen is loosening the cylinder head retention bolts before the engine is lifted out of the frame on account of the superior purchase or grip afforded when the engine is in place. The workman at the right is loosening the fan bracket adjusting bolt in order to take off the fan. After the cylinder head is removed the next operation is to carefully take off the gasket which will be found on top of the cylinder casting. This is done by prying it away from the cylinder block gradually with a screw driver or other similar implement. The next step is to remove the inlet and exhaust manifolds which is done by unloosening the stirrups or clamps holding these in place as shown at Fig. 70. This exposes the valve chamber covers which may be removed as outlined at Fig. 71. The method of taking the piston out through the top of the cylinder head after the connecting rod cap has been removed from the crank shaft is clearly shown at Fig. 72. The top half of the...

Excerpt from The Model T Ford Car, Truck and Conversion Sets, Also Genuine Ford Farm Tractor Construction, Operation and Repair: A Complete Practical Treatise Explaining the Operating Principles of All Parts of the Ford Automobile, With Complete Instructions for Driving and Maintenance <p>The maker's instruction book is excellent but it is necessarily brief as there is no opportunity for an ex tended exposition of principles involved.

Not illustrated. 1921 Excerpt: ...will sometimes become cracked due to freezing of the cooling water or perhaps as a result of a sand or blow hole which opens up from vibration after the cylinder has been used awhile. At the present time the usual practice in repairing cylinders is to fill the depression or crack with iron by the autogenous welding process, although various iron cements may be used for that purpose if the fracture is not serious. A mechanical repair is always possible, i.e., a metal patch can be applied to cover the crack and held in place against a gasket interposed between the plate and the cylinder jacket by small machine screws tapped into the iron. If the crack is of some length it may be repaired by the following method: On the line of the fracture, drill signed; the form at B is the adaptable type for other cars as well as the Ford. It is claimed by the manufacturer that this device can be attached in from fifteen to twenty minutes, ready for work in the field. The various features include an auxiliary cooling system, consisting of a centrifugal pump and a specially designed fan to aid in keeping the power unit cool when working under severe conditions. A device for attachment to the carbureter to prevent dust from entering the engine also is supplied. In mounting the attachment the rear wheels of the motor car are removed and the two driving pinions which mesh with the bull gear on the tractor wheels are attached. All implements are pulled by the attachment itself, thus relieving the chassis of the motor car as much as possible from the strain of the work. The gear reduction is eleven to one. Traction is secured by the semi-concave creepers shown in the illustration. For sandy soil special ten-inch angle creepers are supplied. The two side channels are attached to t...
