I think I figured it out. I when for a short drive today after adjusting the linkage and still had the sound. Went past the neighbors house and he call and said he didn't hear the sound when I went by, but I could still hear it in the car. I also noticed my speedometer was jumping all around so...

It happens no mater what the speed. With the clutch push in it makes the sound all the way to a stop, so speed has nothing to do with it. I have not tried shifting into 3rd at a lower speed, maybe I should do that.

The sound is only in 3rd gear, if it was the throw out bearing the sound would be in all gears, I assume. My hearing is not very good so I got my neighbor to listen. He said the whine is not very load, but the rattle sounds like when you run a powered drain snake down a drain and it's hitting on...

I need to sell it as soon as I get it fixed to help pay medical bills.

No ones said anything about any cats missing. It is a torque tube. The noise does speed up and slow down with speed.

I've got a 41 Mercury coupe, motor and trans was rebuilt a little over two years ago, drove several times with no problems. Today I went for a drive it shifted good through 1st and 2nd gears with no noise, but when I shifted into 3rd it instantly started making a noise like a whine with a light...

I bled the master cylinder again with the same results. My neighbor who is a metal fabricator made a push rod [ the screw part that connects to the pedal ] to take out some of the play in the original, still did not work. Then I replaced the master cylinder and now I have brakes. So it must have...

Yes the MS was bled.

I know this has been covered many times. I have a 41 Mercury coupe, when I got the car it already had a new brake system installed. The PO had used a dual master cylinder conversion from Millworks, new lines, shoes, hoses and wheel cylinders. After 2 years I have finally got the car back...

I should have said I was told they were the same. I was told Cheap is an internet outlet store for Ford Parts. After I asked the question I started searching for info on Cheap and every time the search brought up Ford Parts.

I know CW Moss Ford Parts and CW Moss Cheap is the same company, but does anyone know the difference in their parts other than the price? Most of CW Moss cheap prices are about 40% of CW Moss Ford Parts.

The 41 Mercury has a 1 year production front clip, dash, and tail lights. The front fenders are a 3 piece fender that is wider on the top than the Ford fender. The nose of the hood is about 2 1/2 inches narrower than the Ford hood so the hood latches are different. So with these areas being...

Is there a difference between a 1941 Ford business coupe headliner and a 1941 Mercury business coupe headliner? I have the 41 Mercury and it has 5 bows, all the pre made headliners for a business coupe I can find is for the 41 Ford with 4 bows. They say the regular coupe has 5 bows. I don't...

I thought about getting the Ford one but the bolt holes are too different to cut to fit. The Ford latch on the front is 8 1/4 inches apart, the rear is 12 1/2 inches apart. The Mercury front is 8 inches and the rear is 11 inches. If I cut the Ford latch and drill new holes it will throw the...

Did Ford and Mercury use different size hood latches? I'm needing a upper hood latch for my 41 Mercury coupe, that's the part mounted on the hood. All the ones I have found is 14 inches across on the long end, 10 inches on the short end, but my hood measures 13 inches long end and 9 inches short...

Found what caused distributor to break. The washer I found inside was supposed to be a spacer under the Pertronix Igniter. Without both washers the screws that hold the igniter in hits on the cam plate in the distributor and will not let it turn. With only one washer, like mine was, the...

I am running a 12v system with an alternator

Thanks guys I found a distributor this afternoon for $25. When it warms up a little I'll clean it up and check it out. Since the one I have has a new Pertronix in it I may put it in the distributor I found. The coil I have is a Pertronix Flame thrower, it might be a little to strong for the...

I'm in NW Arkansas. I also know the motor is a 42 and has the 2 bolt distributor mount not the 3 on the 41. I also know about lining the "dogs" "ears" "tabs" up or they will break. It is the Distributor shaft that is broke part #12175 I think. Where it was broke had some rust in the break area...

41 had the crab style distributor, I don't think a converted Chevy will work. I forgot to mention it's been converted to a 12 volt system. All new wiring though out the whole car except gauges and clock.
