Morris Minor Owners Club

well done now you can enjoy the pleasure of driving it, mine brings a smile to my face everytime I am in it. People think I am demented because of the permanent grin (perhaps I am LOL)

Jumped out of modern peugeot when I got home, walked up to house and pointed key at front door, pressed the button and guess what ???????? nothin happened...................... apart from misses killing herself laughing at me.

56 series II with 950 OHV fitted with standard runnning gear

Tried really hard with sat nav as accurate speed indicater and 2008 calendar to time it by but ran out of road at 59 (indicated55) dont think theres a straight long enough in North Norfolk to allow it to reach its full potntial LOL

Had a play with it today, battery been on charge all day and night but its dead just span the starter motor really slowly without engaging not suprising really, Left the charger connected and am pleased to say the sidelights work as do the wipers and indicators on one side, No clicking from the fuel...

Thanks BMC will look into nuts next weekend weather permitting, didn't have much time to play today. It has had a lot of the underneath welding completed leaving the spring hangers and a hole in the floor to do. The previous owner left it for repair then legged it without paying the bill. The other ...

I picked up another Moggy today, it has sat in a garden locally for the last 3 years, seems everyone is right in that once you get one you can't help yourself saving more of them !!!! Still got room for one more in the garden if I get rid of the lawn and the fishpond hee hee. Heres a pic of it, need...

If it hasn't been used for a while the dynamo field may need flashing as the dynamo requires a small amount of residual magnetism to start generating and a long break will cause it to lose this. Take a wire from the non earthed terminal of the battery and connect it to the small terminal ( field) on...

Snetterton is about 20 miles south of Norwich Norfolk right beside the A11. Theres a market there on Sundays which I have been dragged to by 'er indoors but not been to a racing event......yet.

Great Idea Heard of a courier who swapped parcels at the local border between areas and he was really cheap though it could take a week for the parcel to arrive.

So got up early this morning, checked rad for oil and oil for water......found none ? took a plug out dry as a bone and nice colour, turned it over no spark ? take coil lead out of distributer and got a nice beefy spark ??????? Went to wilco's when they opened and suprised to find they had a rotor a...

Thanks for the offer but will be cheaper to buy one as my "other" car is a really thirsty peugeot 406 estate, it would cost more to drive to Watton and back than to buy one. My misses had an omega head gasket go and it cost her a grand t repair it !!!! ( it was quite new so worth it). Oh a...

Thanks for that, just checked and can get one in the morning from my local wilco store for £16.99. I will be waiting on there doorstep at 9.00 AM
