Morris Minor Owners Club

Aye thought that. Crank is good and yes oil filter is all good too.

One of our minors developed a bad rumble /knock when over around 2000 rpm. Immediately we presumed big ends. Although no loss of power, no smoke, oil pressure good, oil and water good. So we pulled of the sump and removed big ends. All excellent and not too old. Removed the centre main cap to find t...

Is the clutch return spring there ?? The return springs can rust and fallen off or not be refitted after a clutch / gearbox removal.

Well it has been at home for over a week now. Work done in that time has been. Checking all brakes which involved no new parts required, as everything looks great and fairly fresh. Also Kingpins, trunnions, bushes, bump stops, track rod ends, tyres all good pretty new. We changed the engine oil, gea...

Today I removed the front door cards on Dad's new traveller, to wax inside the door bottoms. When I was about to reinstall the drivers side one, I found a hand written note on the back of it. It says I was 71 years old when I put it together "LOOK AFTER IT" Mike Muller, 7 Stuart Cresent, R...

Got traveller home tonight. The brakes were brill when going backwards and wick when going forward :o . So got drums off. To discover leading edge the wrong way round. So then after head scratching. So we found that the front backing plates on wrong sides. So both hubs of (they nearly fell off the s...

I personally would go with an 82c one as mine are rarely out in winter

The three minors that we have, I suppose are technically mine. And although I thought three were more than enough :-? , I saw a traveller which was advertised on the UK classic car classified website (not overly popular over here). The car being a 1968 almond green traveller, located one and a half ...

I watched it last night for the second time. Funnily enough just after me and my dad came home from buying my dad's new addition to the fleet. After seeing the program it reinforced that we had got a bargain. Bearing in mind it didn't cost an awful lot more than the wheeler dealer one and it's a hec...

Thanks again. No i would try tightening a bit more with a pull bar

Yep my torque wrench (which is an old school good type, not a digital one) only goes up to 100 lb ft. So i think I'll go with 100 lb ft and it my arms allow it just try tightening it a bit more.

Ok thanks men. I will give it a go later in the year. As the national rally is looming and i don't want to tempt fate. It can't be that difficult even for me

My black minor has an oil leak from the front seal on the diff flange. I have read about needing to pre load the bolt once the new seal has been fitted. Or is it just a case of just tightening up the bolt to a torque ?? I have never done one before so advice would be appreciated.

And here's a local old english white traveller[frame][/frame]

Here's the glacier white traveller that David mentioned[frame][/frame]

The first listed price was reduced to £8???. But it ended with 2 bids not reaching the reserve. It has now been re listed with 5 bids so far.

It hasn't sold with few bids

Well. All i can tell you is that my local tyre supplier was trying bridgestone direct and they weren't available. So the first time he sourced 5 from 4 different outlets !!!
