Convertable Top moving slower and slower: 1) Make sure you have a good battery fully charged ( a new battery with 800 Cold Cranking Amps . This Top needs all the power it can get. If it doesn't get the right power, electricl components can/do malfunction.) 2) Fill Hydraulic Top Pump with Transmission Type A Fluid. 3) Start car and work top up/down 3 times ( to get any air out of the hydraulic system). If Top operation is still slow : Oil all the joints on the metal frame of the top with 3 in 1 Oil. Work the oil into the joins as best you can. If Top operation is still slow: Call Tom Chitwood for over-the-phone diagnosis and advice Tel: 384-290-9982. Tom has 30 years experience on all the early Ford & Lincoln convertable tops.
