Morris Minor Owners Club

Keep up the good work fella.. I no these engines and oil leaks can be a real ngt mare... its testing you at the minute the pick up.. but its getting better and better the more you do... keep your spirits up !

Nice work! Be nice to see how you fitted the new guides.. I can knock them out but getting the new ones drifted in can be very hard without damaging them as ive found the new ones can be very tight to knock in!

All sorted now thanks Mike

Jub clips were not normal on production cars.... So....for a conkers car....should be wire clips, surely...??? Who said it was for my concours car or conkers car as you may like to call it! You need to realise owners have more then one car Roy and stop assuming things No point in me coming on here ...

This is classed as a dust shield or dust cover.. only designed to keep the dirt out.. its not a gaiter as such ie like a steering rack boot etc..

Hi all, im currently not near my minor and want to order some new jubilee hose clips for the top and bottom radiator hose.. anyone no the correct size by any chance? cheers Paul

This should of been a pass and advise to be honest ... as long as there was no excessive play its not a fail.. that's the case over in the north west though.. sadly rubber now is terrible and perish quickly.. my only advise is new old stock to be honest.. or cover it with red brake rubber greese but...

WELL DONE! Is nice when you done something like this and you feel a sense of achievement !

How do you send dave at fj a private pm?

Hmm - beware the stainless bolts. In general they don't have the correct tensile strength and should not be used in suspension applications... Trailers - may be parked round the back of the Pub 5 miles down the road..... :roll: But I'm sure yours will be a Driver. I only use stainless for wing bolt...

Sorry Paul - i'll stopping picking at the concours thing.... I like to see a nicely restored car when it's been done by the owner - and certainly NOT when it's been done by a cheque book.... But the OTT concours thing just leaves me cold -even more so when it's acceptable for them to arrive on trai...

I may be wrong but I get the impression Roy has little time for concours. :D In fact I'm not too keen, as I found it hard to get my hand up the exhaust pipe with the polishing rag :D I don't polish inside the exhaust pipe Les, there is different levels of concours and ocd.. I just like my car how I...

For a saloon my car is but will fit traveller aswell! Not a Vauxhall!

Hi all, is the later type 13/16 master cylinder okay to use on a 1962 standard 7 inch drums all round with servo or do I need the earlier type?

Hi all, a friend of mine has recently bought a 950 minor and hes using it daily... engines running lovely and sounds good, maybe running a little rich but does seem in fine fettle... the engine has no oil leaks what so ever which has amazed me! But he has the breather pipe coming on the front cam co...

Yes the bore of exhaust pipe, ie larger bore exhaust would be classed as modified..

Original yes but sensible improvments to original spec is fine... ie cant go larger bore etc..
