@@CountryTactical There's a pretty good diagram in the old Model T manuals that show what positions the spark and throttle levers should be in for various conditions. I usually leave the spark fully advanced for regular driving, though. You'll find that the car has a lot more power and speed, and like @Rogerjoselyn said, the car won't overheat.
Glad to see you didn't destroy it and that you have a respect for the T! It's good to see younger people getting involved in the hobby. I have a '26 Roadster myself. Yours looks to be a '25 or older. I subscribed so I could see you take it to the dealership! :)
I'm still in my 20s but already am becoming a boring adult. The shenanigans you do and your love for history reminds me of my childhood. Love your videos. They are wholesome, yet epic. I love every single one!
Model Ts almost never died of not running anymore. Their maximum rpm is about 1600 RIP-EMS. It's almost impossible to wear out an engine turning that slow.
Ok, you kids (said with respect) are having great fun. My best friend and I both had model Ts in the late 60’s and early 70’s. We drove em just like yours sometimes without the body at all. Imagine boat cushions strapped to the gas tank and the rear cross member. I held on the steering wheel, he the frame. Exhaust burned his boat cushion. Wow this brings back memories. I still have mine, drove it today to a school where I mentor kids. What a hit it was. One girl even said it was way cooler than a Lamborghini. Used to drive it in snow and throw snowballs at friends. [do have to chime in with others, watch the language, it adds nothing to the fun vibes] I’d post a pic of me on mine in about 1971 if I could figure out how. I had mine doing 37 mph today. But not with school kids in it. You are making memories and helping this geezer relive his. My friend has passed or I sure would forward this to him?
I have a 1925 Ford roadster, I've had it up to 55MPH. If you'd like to improve reliability the main thing I'd do is get a new reproduction radiator and remove the water pump. The only place to get a radiator these days is "Brassworks" in California. Looks like you're running on battery the whole time. You won't get much faster than 35- maybe 40 running on battery, you need to see if the magneto in the engine is working. The coils are meant to run on magneto. Besides properly maintaining the ignition system my new radiator made my car perform much better for speed. Once I get up towards 45 I reach down and lean the carburetor till the speed continues to clime. Running leaner would cause my old rad to immediately boil over.
@@DeanMk1They are thermo syphon but there were many brands of accessory water pumps made for the Model T. They are a bandaid for a failing cooling system.
I'm sooooo happy you're uploading again. I'm young like you and have a '49 Willys... so I understand the struggles of having a classic vehicle. Keep the updates comin whatever they may be!
Get a radiator cap from langs old car parts and advance the spark a bit more to keep a geyser from coming out of you radiator. After that, you’ll be set.
Can you please continue with the Cabin in the woods? It was so much fun and cool seeing you building, making food and sleeping there with you dog and stuff like that so please continue making videos about the Cabin btw kilometers is what we europeans use instead of miles
In all seriousness please take care of the model T, I would recommend you bring it to a car show or something for a video that way you can show it off to other car owners and the gernal public don't know about America but in England they do events where people bring 100s of vintage cars, tractors/steam powered tractors and motorbikes sometimes even hourse and carts and meet in a feild or somewhere as a car meet.
I’m glad you didn’t actually destroy it. Deceptively fun old cars for how slow they are, some crazy off-road capability too if you can find some decent tires that fit. Those old wood spoke wheels are gorgeous, but I understand why many switch to metal, haha.
Agree with Roger and the comments about magneto, plus a hood would help driving through puddles, streams, rivers. Love to see young people learning about and driving a Model T. Put it to the test , and have fun, but don't destroy her. Would love to see more of your adventures. Wish I had bought a T at your age and not wait till I was 60.
Driving with the left stalk on the steering column, all the way forward (engine timing in full retard), will cause it to run Badly, run slower than expected, and overheat. Once the engine is running, Advance the timing by pulling this lever back, about 3/4 of it's travel. You'll hear the engine smooth out. Adjust it to where it runs best. These are your problems (with it) in a nutshell.
Kudos for taking the time to figure out how to drive it. Unlike that lazy bum who just destroyed his, you really show what this automobile can do. Respect. 👍
kilometer is a thousand meters and a meter is 39,3701 inches so a kilometer is 39370,1 inches with is 1 093,613888888889 yards which is 0.62102273 miles
These cars were built for an America without roads. My 1927 was used as a Doodlebug (tractor). It pulled hay rakes and hay wagons, on a farm in central Ohio, before having all of its sheet metal sold, during the Depression. It's sat in a barn from 1932 until seven or eight years ago... Just before the barn fell down.
![Turning My Go-kart Into an Armored "Tank" [Re-Upload]](/img/n.gif)
Running with full spark retard will make it overheat.
HEY DONT CALL ME A RETARD
Pin of shame
the spark timing on left should be all the way down while cruising top speed.@@CountryTactical

@@CountryTacticalretarded is delayed in this case
The idea to take it to a ford dealership is pure gold
yes
Yep
Yes😂😂
Ask them if they still do warranty work !!
Very cool

yessir 1925. I appreciate your support!
You can never tell call deep a pothole is, when it's covered with water.
Don't ask me how I know...
I'm still in my 20s but already am becoming a boring adult. The shenanigans you do and your love for history reminds me of my childhood. Love your videos. They are wholesome, yet epic. I love every single one!
This was honestly surprising, for a car so old it is very impressive
Built to last.

@@Peter-jo3wtis it true? Only 1600 RPM? It's less than tractor diesels when we are talking about petrol precursor
OH MY GOD HE'S ALIVE, HE DIDN'T DIE IN A CAVE SOMEWHERE.......THIS IS GREAT!!!!
glad ya'll are back :)
I’ve never seen so much excitement from a machine that couldn’t break the speed limit in a parking lot

Model T has a water pump?
I thought they were all thermo-syphon systems?

I am so glad to see you guys back
He’s back, and still hasn’t learned how to put a shirt on 😂🙌 glad to see you back
Only CountryTactical can just acquire a model T and not explain how
There's still half a million or so left. Quite easy to come by! Usually you can acquire one in good shape for about 10-12k in Facebook marketplace.
Anyone can buy a running Model T for $5,000 or less.
It's the really beautiful examples that are expensive.
Get a radiator cap from langs old car parts and advance the spark a bit more to keep a geyser from coming out of you radiator. After that, you’ll be set.
Those things are tough. Glad to see you boys are back!
This is arguably the most American thing I’ve ever seen
Can you please continue with the Cabin in the woods? It was so much fun and cool seeing you building, making food and sleeping there with you dog and stuff like that so please continue making videos about the Cabin btw kilometers is what we europeans use instead of miles
The guys at TFL have a fairly decent idea of how to fix Model T radiators and cooling systems.
HES BACK !!!!!
🥛
We need to revive the Amazon and Walmart uniforms
Immediately in love with your channel man. Subbed
Thank you very much man!
As an upstate New Yorker, this is the most Pennsylvania video I’ve ever watched

I still think it is crazy your back. Nice video!
A kilometer is part of our metric System in de EU, it is a 1000 meters. A mile is about 1.6 times bigger than a kilometer
He is back and better than ever
You can't hurt that, you would be hurt. back in the day offroad was sometimes not considered offroad 😂
A kilometre is what we use here in Canada 🇨🇦 1 kilometre is 0.621 miles
I’m glad you didn’t actually destroy it. Deceptively fun old cars for how slow they are, some crazy off-road capability too if you can find some decent tires that fit. Those old wood spoke wheels are gorgeous, but I understand why many switch to metal, haha.
Putting together my own 1927 Model T, with that same body.
Only mine won't have a turtle-trunk.
Mine will have a stake bed.
For a second there I almost thought this was a whistling diesel video of destroying old cars like what he did with a model A Ford. 😅
I want to drive a model T now
So glad to see that you're doing okay and glad to see you back!!!!
My great grandpa had one of those in the 1930s
Agree with Roger and the comments about magneto, plus a hood would help driving through puddles, streams, rivers. Love to see young people learning about and driving a Model T. Put it to the test , and have fun, but don't destroy her. Would love to see more of your adventures. Wish I had bought a T at your age and not wait till I was 60.
Me as an European who lived in the US: how much is a fcking mile
That car would be so cool to own.
You can own one for about 10 or 15k
Me and my friend are probably gonna combine money in the future to get one, that car is so cool.
I bought mine for $1,900
I do wish I can grow up with one of those.
A huge piece of history and the symbol for the begining of the automobile.
This has been an awesome video
We're so back, it was like it was never over
Sad to see it go, happy to watch the video

These videos are fun to watch! I know im a bit younger, but im interested in learning history as well!
you should get a hood and radiator cap for the model t.
The hood will protect your generator and your ignition from water.
Lang's can also provide you with an air cleaner.
You get a thumbs up just for the ASCII and Morse code!👍
did i get a subscribe tho?
@@CountryTactical Yup.
The king has posted
The myth the man the legend has uploaded again
That click bait was quite something. Really good video, though. And good to have you back
I would love to see where you could get one of these things you can get!
Great video
Is it going to be monthly uploads now?
can i have that when your done with it? lol
THE RETURN OF THE KING! 🫡

As a man that loves old vehicles. This video makes me sad
its fine
It's rusted and rugged, it's already seen a lot. And seems to be built like a tank. It isn't like it was mint.
These cars were built for an America without roads.
My 1927 was used as a Doodlebug (tractor).
It pulled hay rakes and hay wagons, on a farm in central Ohio, before having all of its sheet metal sold, during the Depression.
It's sat in a barn from 1932 until seven or eight years ago...
Just before the barn fell down.
Aye my man's back!
Finally back, excited!
My great grandma was literally a baby when that car was made
8:48 LIKE A TRUE PATRIOT SHOULD
Put oatmeal in the radiator for overheating. John Steinbeck wrote about it in a short story called A Model T Named It.
should probably put a hood on it
Will the engine get schooled faster
And an air cleaner.
Lang's will have it.
love the music choices, battlefield 1 is my favorite of the series
The drive by in the Model T. 🔫😂
Just as our great grandfathers intended
Unexpected battlefield music
Good video keep it up
what application do you use to measure this speed, on your phone, friend ?
"¡¿WTF is a kilometer?!" 😂😂
One kilometre is about half a bottle of maple syrup, about three igloos, or one moose.
Eh. From Vancouver island Canada. 🇨🇦
I hate to see it have survived all these years and be destroyed now. Truly sad
I can't stop laughing at his hair whipping around headcam 😆😆😆😆👍👍👍
8:55 WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETRE 🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🔫🔫
💥 💥 💥 💥
The bf1 theme hits different on this channel
Awesome 👏 😎
What's the discord called
I believe you have been taking tips from whistling diesel
We are so back
Where did you get it
good job henry ford
Great video, i like Maveriks video's to 😉1.6 kilometers is 1 mijl its from Europ 😉 have a nice weekend greetings from the Netherlands Chiel
No seat belts, plate glass wind shield
A looong😂 way from Tesla
Still a Classic totally rebuildable Tank!
A meter is 39in.
A kilometer is 1000 m
One mile=5280 feet
A km is about 2/3 of a mile.
Didn't each of these models come with a certain book by Henry Ford? Would be better to discuss that on the odd sea platform.
Didn't looked him for months bro did his puberty and ride a ford T wtf
Where the hell can I get one
I want one
I woke up one spring with some money in my pocket, and Googled "Model T for sale".
A mile is 1.6 kilometers
This is hard to watch I hope you can restore this car
What is a kilometer?
I don’t know I’m American!
A kilometer is a unit to measure distance by countries that haven't put a flag on the moon.
Great 👍 Car ❤
Please tell me this is a replica
by the way ct, 1 kilo equals 0.62 mile
That would be fun to drive
its indestructible
Nice!
Love to see a new one ❤
There are Model T and transportation museums, all over the United States.
Also, local Model T clubs.
