Morris Minor Owners Club

Now the nights are drawing in, I might actually need these... Both my headlamps don't work. Assuming both bulbs haven't blown together, can anybody help me through the maze of wire?

The Haynes manual doesn't seem to me particular helpful.

Not sure if it's relevant, but see the attached picture.

Hello all!

Anyone have any idea what this pattern on the windscreen might be? It is not a heated windscreen. It's only visible first thing in the morning at lower temperatures.

I've had the opportunity to take the back wheels off, wipe the drums, and turn the adjuster screws 2 clicks from fully applied.

No disc brakes.

It feels like there is a slight braking effect SOMEWHERE, but I'm not sure where. The hand ...

Oh.. and it was MoT'd and serviced last week!

It happened again today - took a few goes before the engine was running. The fuel pump ticks as it should.

Is the starter motor struggling to engage? When the engine does end up turning - it needs some throttle, otherwise it peters out.

Any ideas?

I tried it with and without choke. It normally starts fine without.

Hello,

My Minor did not want to start today. It did start in the end, with throttle, but took several goes.

A video will demonstrate best:

Any help would be much appreciated!
