    Hey guys
    Im looking for someone who is familiar with the transmission that came in a 1941 Desoto
    its a 3spd Fluid Drive trans

    I believe they only came in the car for 1941 and 1942

    I have a 1941 Desoto that is all original and just recently the trans stopped shifting

    I can only get it to shift into low gear manually

    the auto is not working at all

    if anyone out there is familiar or rebuilds these please pm me on here or email me at [email protected]
    or if you know someone that works on these units please put them in touch with me

    Im located on Long Island NY
    thanks

    thanks I went through all the vacuum lines in everything yesterday
    and its still having the same issue

    the trans is original from 1941 and was never rebuilt so I imagine something might be wrong
