Morris Minor Owners Club

cheers guys, i got the tacho working and have also installed a oil presure gauge as well, i have the tacho coming from the fused ignition but now everytime i indicate the needle will move with the indicator, it appears to drop down when the indicators flash, any idea what that could be?? the rev cou...

i have driven a minor with discs and a servo and just discs and i can say without any doubt the servo makes it much easier to stop.
cant comment on with drums

i have a 4.22 diff and i have a 1508 tpm speedo, using my satnav i found the speedo to be spot on
ie 40mph on the speedo equals 40 mph on the sat nav

what should be the tpm for a 1098 4.22 diff speedo out of intrest?
its not the original speedo in my morris i dont think, but i didnt change it

hi guys sorry but im going to try and hi-jack this thread slightly, ive got the hayes manual to work with what would be the difference if i put a 1275 mk3 MG midget engine and gearbox in instead of the original 1970 1098cc engine? for example - clutch the morris is a cable/linkage clutch whilst the ...

Hope this helps, just scanned it in from an old drivers handbook

thanks for the advice guys
does the 12v have to come from voltage smoother/stabaliser/regulator? or just from the fuse box?
cheers

I ran a moggy as my only car for about 18 years, and yes 38 mpg is more than possible on long runs. I was getting low 30's driving around town with mid 30's being the norm. On the other hand if you rev the car wildly and hang on to gears as long as possible to get the maximum speed out of each gear...

currently i have my radio wired up separte from the ignition so it can be turned on with the engine off. i was thinking could i wire the remote turn on on the radio to the ignition so it comes on with the engine like in a modern day car? would this just mean adding another wire from the back of the ...

ok ratmog

its listed as a "sports" in its catagory

ask is it an original convertable or an after market conversion (not that there is anyting wrong with either) look at the condition of the hood- will it need replacing? (cheap to do anyway) ask for the MOT certificate number then you can go online and check MOT history and any advisory notices. ask ...

my friend and i were looking to do the mongol rally sometime er well my suggestions clean out any filters ESPECIALLY THE FUEL PUMP! and grease all the grease points which are meant to be done every 3000 miles i think best thing to do is to get a hayes manual and carry out a full service on it let us...

I've noticed the car seems to instill a lovely desire in people to cut me up on roundabouts so much so that when I first got the car I had a friend check the indicators were working twice in the first hour.

mines £280 fully comp im 17 got the mmoc policy with aon
