Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi Guys,
My car is running an alternator and I wanted to remove the control box..


I know you can just join the a and a1 wires all together but what should i do with all the wires going to my earth?

Hi David!
Yeah the very simple line drawing like the convertible! I was looking for something like that in sedan form as a vector file..

Thanks for your reply.

Hi i was just wondering if anyone had any line art or vector drawings of a morris minor?
I was looking for some for some artwork for a community and website and would love to find a decent vector of the car and a decent vector of the logo..

Any assistance would be most appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi Simmitc,
the back of the manifold has a hole in it with a plug done by the previous owner.. we used it to tune the car on a vacuum gauge.. but i was wondering if that was right for running one in the car itself..

Cheers,

Hi guys,
I was just wondering how i'd install a vacuum gauge? would i remove the bolt at the back of my manifold and hook it into that? or is there somewhere near the brake booster? sorry i've never done this before! any pics would be awesome!
Thanks,.

Thanks guys! if i was to take a feed from the ign unfused side and run it through the firewall to a fuse block would you suggest running 1 larger gauge wire and distributing it along the block or running one for each line going into the block? I'm wiring up some gauges at the same time and would lik...

I don't have a heater at the moment and was going to install one this weekend!

Hi I was wondering what size fuse would you recommend for the inline fuse to the head unit by my class a 5amp fuse for peak 50w stereo? Or would you reconnenda 10amp

Thanks James!

So on the unswitched side would I be putting an inline fuse or would I put one on the switched side? Or both?

Cheers tom

Hi ive searched on the forum for a step by step kind of guide to wiring a stereo with a din plug etc I think I've got a good handle on it by I'm stuck figuring out 2 things 1. When wiring to ign power is there something on the fusebox I can wire to or do I simply split the live connection from the o...

Hi just wondering how I'd wore up an on off switch for my heater would I take 12v from the non battery side of the fuse box and if so to which clump of wires or green etc would I wire it to so itonly worked when the ignition is on??

Cheers tom

that's what i love about you guys.. just read and make it! i swear us aussies don't have the tenacity to take a rusted bear shell and hand fabricate the panels and go the extra mile.. i guess road salt has made you guys much better at dealing with a good challenge! time to put on the reading glasses...

Hi Guys! used to have these on my mini on both sides.. and really loved the look of them! I have ONE left! (alas) and i've been asking around about getting them repro'd with some rubber moulding companies as i haven't been able to track down any more! I just wanted to share another BMC accessory bec...

Hi Mike!
thanks so very much! Early handle it is!

hi Louise! most appreciated! I shall try and return the late model handle and get an older one!

the one thing i then don't understand is how the suppliers can only list the one gasket if the bolt holes are further apart!

Hi Mike,
thanks so very much!

Hi All,

Thanks so much,
