Re: Mirrors

Some cars if you left indicator switch in either left or right and switched off the ignition the front and rear side light illuminated on one side only. Marking parked car without having 4 lights draining battery. I believe parking lights were required on unlit Road.

Re: Hub identification disc brakes

Thanks Phil the castellated Marina locking ring is what I have but fitted over a castellated nut that has possibly been ground down to give the right depth for the locking ring to align with split pin hole in stub. At least I now know I have minor stub axles, in the winter I will pull a hub of compl...

Re: Mirrors

Drilled through chrome triangle in front of quarter light, it's still useable. Could do with passenger side having slightly longer arm, it's fine driving but would benefit when reversing to see back wheel.

Re: Knocking from engine on medium revs.

I will try to post a video. This morning I took car for a short run to warm up. Rattle noice still there. It seems to be within a fairly narrow mid rev range. I can get rid of it by modifying speed and / or changing gear. With the engine warm I pulled off each plug lead in turn and reved the engine...

Re: Knocking from engine on medium revs.

Perhaps post a youtube video so we can listen very difficult from a description. Have you tried pulling a plug lead off and try with each cylinder not firing in turn to see if one makes any difference? No harm to rev up on 3 cylinders :tu1: Does crank pully seem secure as you mentioned you thought d...

Re: Part identification

I think the common cost saving in the industry of using illustrations for multiple products.
They list it as "SU Carburettors and Spares for Morris Minor 1098 cc HS2 1962 to 1970"

Part identification

After removing and checking needle valve on AUD13 carb I found this on work bench. Does anyone recognise it. Checked the carburettor parts diagrams but cannot identify it.
Possibly from the many other she'd projects.

Re: Over-Eager Wipers on Start

Disconnect the parking earth wire and see if problem stops, you then know its the park system. You will not have the red connector!
If the issue continues then the earth wire to the switch is going to ground occasionally or the switch itself is faulty.

Re: Over-Eager Wipers on Start

Perhaps the park circuit is playing up, Mark the top cover position take it off and check brass contact and ring. The wipers work by earthing through the switch or this contact until it reaches the gap in the track = park position.ign is providing the positive when key on.

Is a two or three pin flasher unit? Then you will know which of geoberni wiring diagram to follow.
