Core plugs
Just removed 4 core plugs from Morris Ital engine block. I thought there were 5, but can’t find the fifth !

Re: Core plugs
Hi,
I beleive 'philthehill' has covered A+ Ital engines before, so he should be able to give you the definitive answer.
Below is a link to a previous topic.
If he doesn't pick up on this send him a pm.
Best wishes,
Mike.

Re: Core plugs
There are only four core plugs in a 1275cc Marina/Ital block.
Two in the rear of the block and two in the oil filter side of the block.
The MG Midget/Sprite 1275cc block has five core plugs.
Two in the rear of the block and three in the oil filter side of the block.

Re: Core plugs
Thank you, I see the fifth would have been where the filter bossing is on the Marina/ Ital.
Re: Core plugs
Plugs in place now but I didn’t leave sealant five minutes before assembly as instructed, oh dear! Fingers crossed.

Cam bearings, I’ve done this once but wasn’t happy with quality, so this is the next step,
