Morris Minor Owners Club

G day I'm removing the fuel tank from a morris minor 1000 1960 model. My question is: to remove the fuel line from the tank do I have to remove the fuel line completely? I as this as when Iv undone the fitting from the tan the line will not come out of the tank so Im wondering if I go ahead and remo...

Hi everyone, Im just wondering why Iv never seen a moggie with a chrome grill..no not the grill surround..the whole thing..I think it would look pretty good..call me a moron but ..is there some reason why no one chromes them??..is it not possible??

thanks Les..I like that idea

thanks again everyone...the problem was accessing cage nuts and the master cylinder being in the way...phew..Im glad I dont have to remove the pedals..apologies to those who misinterpreted & thought the cross member hadnt been touched yet special thanks to IslipMinor & Simmitc for understand...

thanks everyone & please forgive the delayed response, but I am happy to say that the job was quite easy and underneath ..."NO RUST!!!!"...I think my car has been protected by clay that seems to be 50 years old and an inch thick

It seems I worded my question wrong..or you guys are misreading it..the problem is the CROSSMEMBER CAGE NUTS have already been removed and ONE wont go back in...my question is..can I possibly move the master cylinder without fully detaching it?

thanks very muchly

yes you would think so..but umm..my ever so helpful boyfriend started it..and has already unbolted the cross member..which is why we are stuck at the cage nut stage

The Technical tips link (or button thingy...yep I know my computer lingo..not) cant find the page

hi everyone Im half way through replacing the gear box mounts and one of the cage nuts wont hold (nothing to grip on)..my question is do I have to completely take out the master cylinder or is there a way I can avoid removing the clutch and break etc..ie: just move the cylinder a bit to see the prob...

thank you ..will keep my fingers crossed

thanks everyone, I think it was dirty fuel..problem seems to be solved now...fingers crossed

My little moggie had a work out today and had to get petrol from a truck stop she doesnt normally visit..anyhoo..after a long run she start choking on hills then stopping all together, It felt to me like to much petrol was getting through..other say not enough..she did (on the same journey) try to j...

hi all my morris minor is supposedly a 1960 model the colour stamped under the bonnet states Camden Cream..however..when looking at a site which specified which colours came out within which years..Camden cream did not exist..and cream was not used as a paint colour during the era of my vehicle...an...

hi everyone, just probing for ideas..Iv a 1960 morris minor 4 door and naturally want her to look and feel her best, she's road worthy (well apparently... she is registered)..and Im just wondering where to throw my cash first..I want slightly wider wheels but want to retain her original hubcaps..Id ...
