I'm having a different issue with my new to me (out of a 20 year slumber) '50 Merc with overdrive. Rather than start a new thread I thought I could ask here? Please point me in another direction if I am out of bounds.

That said, the OD appears to be working alright but wheather in or out I get a noise that reminds me of baseball cards in the spokes of a bicycle? I took what slack there was out of the overdrive cable but the noise persists. Can anyone offer any suggestions on where to look next? Thanks!
