HELP PLEASE, Motor turns over but wont start
First place to check for spark by pulling the boot off and using a screwderiver to ground to check for spark while cranking. If you have spark at the plug it would be a points or coil problem...if electrical..what kind of carb is on there..a lot of…

Rambo went under the knife today...
hc - Sorry to hear about Rocky's passing. Dogs are amazingly stoic - even when not feeling well, they still want to be with you. Sounds like he put up the good fight as long as he could. I'll give Rambo and extra pat on the head in mem…

Rambo went under the knife today...
Hi All - Good news, Rambo got pumped full of IV antibiotics and responded well. Still treating the pneumonia but he's nearly back to his pre-op self with the plus that he can breathe again...he even trotted across the yard last night, something…

Rambo went under the knife today...
Thanks everyone, Rambo had a setback last night and is back in the hospital fighting pneumonia. Won't know for the next 24-48 hours if he's going to respond to treatment. I'll do what I can within reason, but it's in God's…

Anyone's Hudson packing...? (Guns that is!)
This thread is about Guns in your cars and how one might appropriately store them....lets not get too far off on the political spectrum here..I'm sure theres many more forums for that kind of topic ;)

Anyone's Hudson packing...? (Guns that is!)
However all that being said, I have recently considered getting a permit to carry, and doing some familiarization with my pistols. Funny my brother is a Sergeant in a local Police Department for 25 years. He hasn't carried off-duty for the la…

Recoverable or Unrecoverable This is the question
Oh boy - tired of the color "rust" yet? I thought my 49 was borderline but went ahead with repairs anyway..your's is much worse, but not the worst I've seen - like the Jet Convertible! I do think if you're set on a Hudson …

Anyone's Hudson packing...? (Guns that is!)
the Trunk is an excellent place, and more easily accomodating a locking type safe..good for other stuff besides pistols. But, I do think I want something in the cockpit that is more discreet and could be used in a similar fashion. Since the commod…

Hudson wheel and tire dilemma
so 1/2" width difference - what was the point of that? I wonder if Alex has a technical bulleteins that explain why? Thinking of no-power steering and bias-ply tires of old..1/2" probably wouldn't make a hole lot of difference. Wit…

Car keeps stalling
hmm..sounds to me like the float level might be off and closing the needle seat - is it only stalling during slowdown/braking..or does it also happen on hard cornering too?

Alex - you're much too modest (as always) You've spent years and years putting this information together much of which might have been lost if not for your efforts. What you've helped accomplish will allow Hudson fans access to that…
