Re: standard 1098 engine
Only if the distance between the extreme edges of the damage is less than 2.64125" diameter would you be able to fit a cylinder liner. See section AAA.12 of Morris Minor 1000 workshop manual AKD 530. If the damage distance is more than that quoted above the remaining damage will still be expose...

Re: Where can I buy a new bonnet rubber
If your windscreen is leaking just flood the seal with Captain Tolley's creeping crack cure. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126024991251?epid=2306096349&itmmeta=01HT0C6SF64B8E5BWXH1BZNK3P&hash=item1d57acc213:g:USsAAOSwEmNk6xWi&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA0NVn%2BegO9A2Ieq16dmWugHWFYjM3LD%2FhicvHMtAY...

Re: Water temperature switch
It will be much easier to fit a coolant temp gauge than try and improvise what you want.
If you want the light to illuminate when the engine is overheated it will be too late. With a gauge you will know what the temp is and can observe it rising and stop the engine before the engine gets damaged.

What ever the grade those bolts with washers are I would advise that they need to be replaced with the correct bolts & without washers and correctly torqued.

I do have the SU Reference Catalogue. Burlen Fuels ALT9524, Issue 12/4, December 1998. It states for a 1098cc 'A' Series engine fitted with a AUD 13 carb the needle should be AUD1478AN. The catalogue does not give a listing for the HS2 carb when the PCV valve is fitted/used or for the HS2 carb with ...

Re: VENT PIPE
The manifold in the photo above is the early 2 piece manifold for a H2 SU carb. There is no provision for either a PCV valve or servo vacuum take off. The manifold appears to have been drilled and tapped for a vacuum pipe take off. Only the later manifolds have provision for the PCV valve and servo ...

Re: What is this overflow? pipe for?
The idea is that as the pipe exit is low and in the under car depression slipstream and any fumes are meant to be sucked out of the engine and dispersed into the atmosphere. Not very environmentally friendly . Later cars had the breathers piped into the inlet tract and any fumes generated were consu...

Re: Rear damper link rubber top bush
Make a note of the part numbers as a supplement in your Army Minor parts list then you will have a record of the alternative bushes available.

Re: Steering column pinch bolt problem
Well done.
The correct bolt for this application is 1/4" BSF bolt but a 1/4" UNF bolt or in my case I have fitted a 12.9 high tensile UNF cap headed bolt.

Re: Steering column pinch bolt problem
Have you lined up the hole in the column with the waisted section of the rack pinion? With all lined up the bolt will pass easily though the column and past the waisted section of the pinion. If you have a shallow taper punch put it into the hole and wiggle it about and that should line everything u...
