Morris Minor Owners Club

That is brilliant I love my campers and I love my Minor so I'd say you have the perfect vehicle
The pop-top looks very similar to that on my Auto-Sleeper, does it operate in a similar fashion.

What's it showing at the battery?

Maybe running a little lean, have you tried the lift pin test?
Which needle did you settle on by the way.

This thread shows the differences in gear sticks

If it's an electrical gauge or a cappilary type, the sensors both fit here, this is my new capillary gauge fitting.[frame][/frame]


Sorry about the pic quality
There should be a blanking plug there if a sender hasn't already been fitted.

Is the second gauge definitely an electrical one? The 'thick copper wire' could be a capillary tube. Any pictures.

Welcome indeed with a very informative post, not got a split screen myself but I'm sure the will be plenty of other grateful for you research.

Ah but it's a police traveller I think, got to be BB

A completed wooden side bolted up to the B post and lightly supported at the rear should give you a more accurate line to work from. A spirit level on the roof mightn't be close enough, the springs could be uneven, the weight of the car (sans floor :cry: ) will both cause a problem. Once it's finish...

Wont the roof be at the correct level once the new wood is on? Or has the floor collapsed to the point it cant support the timber sides

I guess that because the Mini fan is so small and the rad large in comparison there will be an air flow around it as the car is in motion and at idle the fan will push cooling air through, not advised for hot climates though me thinks

Sounds about the same as mine, just the top centimetre. If you can get it in a dry garage and strip the varnish off and leave it to dry out for as long as you can then treat with Cuprinol and seal. I found the coating that had been applied by the previous owner actually held the moisture in and made...

If you've got a fuel filter fitted in the engine bay then get rid of it. They can be a source of fuel vaporisation and caused very similar problem on my car - dumped the filter and bye bye problem . Also check the mesh on the inlet side of the pump for debris.

Yes but that fan is pushing the air back through the radiator, as it's designed to do on a Mini with it's side mounted rad, but on the Minor the flow through the rad will stall when the car is moving. Declan said it's been fine for years, it just goes to show how over engineered the cooling system is.

I've had excellent results in the past with vinyl silk emulsion on a couple of cars Not sure if you can get it in black though

Looks like a Mini fan.
I think it is and the pitch on the blades is the wrong way round

My travellers rear posts are going the same way :-? I recently did a repair where the waist rail meets the rear pillar and stripped and treated all the wood while I was at it. The top of the pillars were a little soft but by drying the wood out and treating with several application of Cuprinol 5 the...

I've not tried the rubber ones but from what I hear I wouldn't bother. You say there is some vapour from the breather - is it the chimney type or just a pipe bent downwards, is there excessive vapour when you take the oil filler cap off? The chimney type should be connected to the inlet on the carb,...
