would be good to find out,,,,,,,

Going to order new kit for the carb today, 3 different needles on offer, Weak, Standard and rich, which one would you recommend guys for normal daily running??????????

Hi guys, thanks for the input, I have since disconnected the full system, the petrol pump filter appeared fine, however I couldn't find a filter at he carb fuel inlet when I disconnected it, (above the float chamber), but when I removed the pipe there was quite a bit of sediment lying there, I think...

Been a busy day again,, fuel tank removed and this is only a fraction of the crap that came out of it!!!!! :shock: What do you guys recommend for cleaning tank out and also to possibly reseal it afterwards???? http://www.flickr.com/photos/kenmof2000/12051031603/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/kenmof20...

Thanks Trevor,,, is there an easy way to do or check this????

Hi Ronald,, many thanks for the input!! Throttle movement is okay, the timing I set up with a friend a few weeks ago, and the manual advance/retard working well,, my friend and I (like yourself) are now looking at the mixture, whilst stationary the engine revs no problem, I checked the spark plugs t...

Hi Folks,, well, got a lot done over the last few days to JJ9069, had help few weeks ago from a friend who helped me set up the timing etc. Today, engine temp normal, revving very well whilst stationary, HOWEVER, when under load / moving away even with the pedal down, the engine is very hesitant????...

Thanks m8,, im going to get some antifreeze this week, I put radiator back together today and into car, I believe the blue antifreeze is the only one to use so am going to try and source some!! any recommendations!!!!!

Regards, kenny

Hi Ian,, side and brake lights already fitted but o/s holder is broken internally, still have the original one to the right of the number plate, obviously at some point someone has gone to the effort of fitted the ones on it at present?? n/s works fine and o/s side light works but on investigation t...

Hi guys, looking for a rear light holder for my 1933 Morris Minor SV. Anyone know where I can pick one up??

Fantastic, thanks Ian!!! That certainly puts my mind to rest a little. So glad it started up today, was well chuffed!! Just need to await my logbook so I can get it taxed for the open road!!!!

Well, after a wee bit of tinkering today the wee Morris fired up, managed to get it a wee run round the estate!! Bit hesitant on acceleration though?? Oil pressure gauge on tickover sitting 20-40? Is this the normal?? Calometer working well. I've found 4 gears and reverse, is this right for my year ...
