Bush must have fallen out whilst removing distributor. Found it on the floor just after distributor removal.

Just dismantled my 1098 engine. When I withdrew the distributor drive shaft the bush at the inner end of the driveshaft came out with the driveshaft. I assume this should have remained in situ. To refit, should this bush be loctited into place so the shaft rotates in it?

Thank you.

On my recently purchased Moggy the engine is a Austin 1100 from a A40 Mk2. It had a 948 gearbox fitted. I've obtained a 1098 box to refurb. Can a 1098 flywheel be fitted and a 1098 clutch assembly without modification?

Any pics?

Plate is missing. Number stamp at top right hand illegible.

You are right, my mistake. It's FLB11.

My 1958 Convertible has a VIN starting LLB11. This as I understand is a Traveller VIN?? Log book shows Minor Coupe 948cc with first registration 04/01/1958. Is this just a mistaken VIN. Would someone convert a Traveller to a Convertible? Very unlikely.

If the engine is detached from the gearbox for removal is there anything to undo at the gearbox end other than the engine to gearbox bolts?

Who are the best part suppliers for the 10D?

Thanks Phil I've rechecked and it looks as if it is 10D with the zero partly obliterated.

Can anyone identify this engine number from a 1958 1GD-U-H. I've searched but cannot find a specific match. Some MG engines include the GD part but not 1GD.
