Morris Minor Owners Club

when I first fitted the manifold I did run it unconected to the cooling system. As soon as I plumbed it in there was a marked running improvment especially in cold weather + I can knock the choke off a lot sooner than before

I couldn't decide whether or not to remove the bypass as I made one in my heater piping so I restricted it by cutting the head off a suitably sized bolt & drilling a 1/4" hole down the center then fitting it inside the pipe. The heater pipes return through a heated manifold then to the bott...

The QH website has a good parts listing on it try this link & click on * view Q-PID online * it lists loads of parts & even cross references the part no's as well

Morris is listed under Rover

the one with the hole should go on the block to line up with the oil feed hole

Ive got the redrilled marina front hubs on mine they look have a top hat shaped dowel in the original studhole then have been redrilled to minor spacing. I would have thought the same would be possible with the rears if theres enough metal on the hub

I dont know if they have one or not but if its original application was a twin setup the vac take off could have been on the other carb or manifold. You could make a takeoff in the manifold but the vac advance unit was designed to operate from the partial vacuum close to the butterfly as on the SU s...

Im still up for going

you can have a look at mine if you want im not too far from you

probably best to get a new bearing kit. the ones on this link have the necessary spacers etc for the minor/marina setup

join the heater pipes together with a short length of copper pipe or similar the coolant will circulate normaly then with the heater bypassed

I found this website with a listing of different types of tyre valves they look like they are still avaliable

Im actualy making one good diff out of two faulty diffs one has a gear problem the other has a noisy pinion bearing at least I will have a spare to keep me going if the need arises & most importantly all for minimal expense

I use a clarke 100E had it about 14 years ive never had a thermal cut out & only had to replace consumable items can recommend

I may have worked it out. the manual says the block is the standard thickness of the bearings. I calculated the figures with the original bearings & it all tallys up to the original shims fitted & as bearings are manufactured to very tight tolarances hopfuly wont need any shims Why do it you...

Hello Iwill be replacing the bearings on a diff soon Has anyone got the differential setting tool 18G191B what I would like to know is the size of the setting block A that the pinion height etc is determined from as this dimension is not quoted in the factory manual. I've already taken measurements ...

One trick I use with this sort of fault is to wire a bulb in place of the fuse as its shorting it should light the bulb if it goes out after unplugging certain lights or wiggling wires etc that is where the short is likely to be

if you've got a small enough funnel you could remove the breather cap & fill it through that or you could jack the car up on one side remove a halfshaft & poor the oil in there

I had an early 1970 mark 3 GT6 a few years ago it had wolfrace slotmags on looked great but was in need of restoration
p,x for a 1975 TVR 3000m .great fun but sadly had to sell it to fund other things

I used the later type indicator/sidelight on the front For the rear I mounted some lights under the bumper. they are made by rubbolite I got them from beaulieu autojumble they are intended for comercial vehicles, trailers etc so should be easy to come by Ive loaded a picture below of what ive done h...

hello there should be 3 wires coming from the headlights which pass through the inner wing & connect to the main loom with bullit conectors. blue/white is for the main beam , blue/red is for the dip beam & a black one which should earth to the body same for the indicator /sidelight but there...
