Default Re: misdiagnosis based on assumptions

Back in the day my Dad's (now mine) '29 Tudor had the same 'no-go' symptoms, and my Dad immediately though clutch slippage, or transmission issues. He was going to pull the engine to start work when I noticed the speedometer was still registering, hence the drive shaft must still be turning.... A quick check of both rear hubs showed one pinion key had sheared in half. Easy fix from there......
