1950 Ford/Merc shop manual
Did Ford or Mercury produce a shop manual? I've seen a variety of books from overhaul guides, tune up guides and body books. Just got a 1950 Mercury.

Re: No gas to engine still
A leak in the fuel line between the tank and the pump will cause it to suck air, not gas. Crazy idea, might check though.

Re: How do I check king pins for wear, 41 coupe
I'd second Rotorwrench on the honing. Soft bushings will hold abrasive particles. Hard surfaces like brake cyclinders are more reliably honed without impregnating the metal with the abrasive.

Re: Rusted In Kingpins
Just wondering - if water is introduced to the old rust, then would the newly forming rust breaking the parts free?

Re: 2 year search ended, brought this home
Two years? Great work and good for you on the patience. Cool cars or cars that you specifically want seem to come out in dribbles and drabs. Just have to be that patient to get the one you want.
