Morris Minor Owners Club

Cheers Phil

I cant see the numbers I was expecting. I thought it was 25D4.

the engine is standard, Ivor Searle have confirmed that
It does have electronic ignition with pointd and an LCB exhaust manifold
It does have vacum advance but im not surebabout mechanical

What should the timing be ?

I have a 1275cc with a single 1 1/2 HIF
Idle is rough and I need run it at 1300 plus
It has a low tech electronic ignition which uses points and an lcb exhaust and k & n filter
What should it idle at ?

Super

Matron..!

I think I will give it a go
I know somone mentioned marking the nut and tightening it back up to that point. Whats the thoughts on that ? I dont believe I have 13ftlbs drag at the moment as it spun quite easily on the bench but I thought I would leave well alone

Thanks Phil
So that video is Bo@*#@ks !
Can this be done in the axle ?

smooth

So,fitted the replacement diff and seems ok, no noises ,however it has a slight leak from the pinion seal. Whats the easiest way to solve this given that I buggered up the last one by over tightening the nut when I followed the instructions in the manual and this video If you watch from 24 mins you ...

concoction

delight

honesty

anything ??

I have found a dealer who has 3 diffs all 3.9:1 out of the axles
Apart from physical damage to teeth what should I look for ?

The poly spring seats will not do anything untoward as regards a harsh ride. All they do is locate the axle. Personally I would have left the poly spring seats in place.

Re fitted the poly spring seats and you were right they are fine
Much easier to fit and tighten also as the do not compress

You must use a BTA carrier and not a Minor ATA carrier.

Thanks
What does BTA mean ?

Here's where I bought my 3.9 CWP. (246.46€).
The tolerances were not the best (Made in Turkey) and this company is distributing them all over.

The 3.9:1 I have has a damaged CW&P
