Re: 39 ford Most likely your mechanism needs to be lubed. Do you know the last time it was done?

Re: 39 ford Sometimes the arms tend to catch through the slots.
You can feel them under the dash. Also some WD40 or similar may help lubricate the crank mechanism - again probably need to do it from under the dash. |

What were they pointing at? Certainly, it couldn't have been the Hindenburg. DD https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/attac...2&d=1584650522 |

Re: 39 ford That's me on the left, my Gfather in front of me, we were at his farm in the Ozarks of AR. I was about 5 then (1949/50) so, I really don't remember but, my guess would be a chicken hawk.
My dad (not in the pic) worked at Meyer and Welch (authorize Ford Rebuider), at that time and the car had a 48 engine in it. |
Re: 39 ford If your going to lubricate anything do not use WD-40 it is not a true lubricant. It is Water Displacement product. Lots of much better true lubricants to use.

Re: 39 ford Thank you Terry! Any locksmith or clock repair guy will tell you never spray WD40 in a clock or lock.
A few years ago a car collector I was working for had a ‘61 Lincoln that you had to jiggle the ignition key to turn it on. So I gave it a shot of WD and it never worked again, even one time, until I took the switch to a locksmith. It works pretty good on window channel though. And kills termites. |
Re: 39 ford My '35 had a similar issue......a bit of white lithium grease solved it.......now cranks in/out with ease.

Re: 39 ford I was going to say -- "Look, up in the sky. Its a bird. Its a plane." But Superman didnt start until 1952.

Ah ah.....not so fast, there. The TV series didn't begin 'til '52. But the character was created by writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster, and first appeared in Action Comics #1, a comic book published on April 18, 1938. So....MAYBE it could'a been....? DD |
