Hey,classiclover, are all pulleys running straight and tru? if not belt,could be bearings not well in water pumps. years ago people used belt dressing on the belts. i believe because the belts left to long running loose too long pulleys would get a glaze. the belt dressing was a pine tar substance. use a auto stethescope to listen to water pump. tom.

squeaky fan belt do you have the correct belt. pully angle and depth ? how old is it ? is it hard, ?? it the belt riding on the bottom of pulley ? maybe causing it to slip, ?? is it a after market belt, NAPA believe it or not they may have a listing for your 1940 they have the correct belt for my 37 85 hp BELT DRESSING is a temp fix if at all my 2 cents 37 Ragtopman , Maine
