Morris Minor Owners Club

I failed to include a pic of the 1 and 1/2” carb and ECV upon installation but I’ve shown a pic of a similar installation. (Bottom pic) On mine there was insufficient space for the air inlet pipe and the fuel pump had to be moved. Since then I’ve moved the air inlet facing the front of the car but y...

Ebay is a good source but beware these are handed left and right and I received two of the same and had to replace one so a false economy!

It’s on a considerable list of to do’s and will post pics when done

Thanks for prompt reply! Best wishes, John

I need to charge my Morris’s battery which is a negative earth vehicle. So the red cable is on the positive terminal and the earth cable on the negative terminal. I’ve a senior moment or three - just to check that I should connect the red charger clip to the red battery terminal likewise the black? ...

Yes I will need to go to a specialist fitter but I’m interested in members experience as well. I can’t be the only one! Thanks, John

Are there any members who have had adaptations to their Morris Minor because of leg amputation? I’ve just had the op done (right leg) and don’t want to stop driving our Morris. Let me know please, thanks, John

Many thanks for replies, the clamp was indeed close to the terminal so have radiused that as suggested, cleaned up and applied Vaseline so hope that works regards John

Missed pic off

Found an accumulation of salts (?) between the positive terminal and battery retaining clamp see pic. I’ve cleaned this up but wonder what’s causing it, no leakage from terminal or cells can be seen? Thanks John

PS it’s negative earthed

Excellent thank you they look the same as the MGBs which I have aquired, regards, John

Mine has been MOT’d this year and will be every year. I’m good mechanically and electrically but don’t have the knowledge regarding chassis/bodywork. The answer of course is to replace rust damaged areas when they appear but I’m not always sure what is load bearing and what is not. Happy Christmas o...

See link re car stopped for being in a dangerous condition despite being Mot exempt, not good

Oops forgot pics:

Minispares have different types of speedo available including gearbox driven types. I particularly like the magnolia version. I wonder if anyone in MMOC has fitted these to a Morris Minor assuming that’s possible? Pics shown below out of interest. Also the market for Morris Minor spares seems differ...

Looking at the Minispares website there is only one HS2 float chambers listed but with two different gaskets to give the correct 30 degree angle ....
