Morris Minor Owners Club

has anyone used this company for tyres?

firestone f560 145r14 for 38.90 each and that includes vat and mobile fitting so looks like a bargin

We though that perhaps a pub on yours or Mikes door step for a change. After all if you both drive all that way its only fair thet we could do the same one evening ;-)

Lets stick with the Cricketers this week and perhaps we can come up with a pub near Ringwood next week?

cricketers is fine with me.

heres the photo from the last meet

I was the second car that slipped past... but to be fair you were still indicating right and there was plenty of room ;-)

Yeah we did comment in my car what people must think as 6 mogs drive past. I will get a piccy up later today I hope.

5 Mogs last night.



Add suggestions for next weeks pub.

I'll be there

Its the marina engine, but does seem to have larger carb and mini air box, so its a bit of mix and match under the bonet

But either way you welcome to peer under the bonet on Thursday for some ideas on how the oil cooler is fitted.

I have a oil cooler fitted on my 1275. No idea how, as was done before I owned her. But you're more then welcome to stare under the bonnet or crawl under her at next weeks SADMOG meet to get some ideas perhaps. See you there Thursday, oh and if you can remember the number plate backing plate for me ...

Piccy from the Thursday meet of SADMOG....



6 cars this time a new record ;-)

Suggestions for next week, perhaps the Bold Forester or shall we pick some where untried? post suggestions please.

none at all, you can keep it on.

They are often not fitted to 1300 engines as some of the cars that carried them had no place to put a starting handle in.

Correct, this is a starting handle dog.

To put it in you will need to slacken off the fan belt remove the bolt holding the lower pully, replace with this and tighen the belt back up.

Hi guys,

OK, so it looks like the Lamb this coming Thursday, I'll be there.

Cheers

my car has a key switch to cut the battery so that nothing works once its removed. Its the sort of switch normally found on a boat for isolation, handles 100A so more than enough and it fits neatly out of the way under the dash. I've seen them on ebay for a few quid, even new I would expect them to ...

A picture of last weeks meet, sorry it's taken me so long to post it.

Like two peas in a pod......


Only 4 people in two mogs last week, I'm not here this week, so its up to you guys to keep SADMOG going. I'll be back next week so see you then

Thanks Andrew I thought that was the case having looked at wire diagram for the year. Yes the heater cable comes out of bulkhead in its own hole near the heater pipes and beneath the choke cable Oh and because she was towing she has a 1275 engine and disc brakes and is actually quite nippy, just don...

sounds a little like my car ;-) I've still got the old heater cable and control, but am in the process of freeing it as it was stuck solid and a brass tap had been used in its place. I have a new control valve ready to fit. I know it may not be as reliable, but I want to be able to turn the heat off...

humm

well 4 people in 2 mogs, not a great turn out, but still a very nice evening. I'll post a photo tonight when i get it off the camera.

I'm away next week, so I'll see you guys when I get back. Have fun.

Thanks, have taken a copy of that sheet. I have also read loads of manuals on what I should be doing. But I know what they are like. Simple instructions like 'apply greese to x' 'simply unbolt y' 'reassemble in reverse order' which we all know results in hours of head straching and the odd naughty w...

if there is no plate in the engine bay I would think thats was it. unless somewhere is a record of your reg + chassis (assuming the reg has never changed) old MOTs perhaps?

OK. So I've had lizzy a number of weeks now and decided that its time for a first service..... my first service on a moggy that is since she must be a pro by now! Of course owning a moggy is all about doing as much yourself as you can, so definatly not off to a garage for this. got a greese gun, plu...
