1953 MAYFAIR WITH ULTRAMATIC.
CAR WONT START: NEUTRAL SAFETY SW.
I BYPASSED THE CARTER 'CARSTARTER' SWITCH. STILL DID'NT START. THEREFORE THE CARTER SW IS GOOD.
THEN I TRYED MOVING THE SHIFTER BACK-FORTH WHILE DEPRESSING THE FLOOR START SWITCH. IT TRYED FOR A SECOND TO CRANK AND STOPPED. I'M INCLINED TO BELIEVE IT'S A NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH SOME WHERE. WHERE IS THIS SWITCH LOCATED? ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS? VITO1950

HI EVERYONE.I JUST BOUGHT THIS 53 MAYFAIR. DON'T HAVE ANY LIT (SHOP MANUAL).
1) PWR BRAKES: WHAT TYPE OF BRAKE FLUID DOES THIS USE?
THE DOT 3 OR (SILICON) DOT-5? HOW CAN I DETERMINE IT?
2) AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: DO I CHECK THE LEVEL WHILE ENGINE IS OFF OR RUNNING?
AT THIS MOMENT IT READ ABOVE THE LIMIT LINE WITH ENGINE OFF. IT LOOKS LIKE THE STD RED FLUID.
WHAT TYPE FLUID DOES IT USE?
THANK FOR YUR HELP
