Re: MM PARTS IN CLUB SPARES - new additions Oct 2014

Hi, sorry if this question has been asked before. But is there a list of spares anywhere of later Morris Minor models that will fit the Series MM, such as throttle and started cables, drum brakes and any other bits and pieces? I know there are things that are purely Series MM because of the design a...

Re: Renewing heater hoses

Thanks for the tips, especially kicking the tyres and not the hub caps. Job done with an awful lot of coaxing, begging and yep, swearing!!!

Re: Renewing heater hoses

So screwdriver, bowl, patience and a little swearing (optional). Thanks once again Mike, I'll give it a go.

Renewing heater hoses

First of all, sorry if this is a question that has been asked a thousand times already but I couldn't find an answer when I searched the forums. I've recently bought my Moggy and I need to change the heater hoses as they have collapsed...badly. She's a 1952 Series MM 918 side valve with the 'fug sti...

Re: Sump removal - 918 side valve

Two reasons. The first being to get the remains of the original sump plug out...hopefully. But also she's been sat since 1972 and when I took the oil filter assembly off, it was completely filled with gunge. As it happens the sump has about an inch of the same stuff at the bottom as well.

Re: Sump removal - 918 side valve

Thanks Mike, it dropped off eventually. I think it was caught up on some lock wire that was used to hold the pressure relief valve on the oil pump in place.

Sump removal - 918 side valve

Hi, sorry for asking a daft question but I'm in the process of removing the sump. I've released all the bolts and the sump drops down. The manual says to move the sump as far left to clear the oil pump and drop the sump down. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be working. The sump is free of the eng...
