Morris Minor Owners Club

Likely ignition problem - new rotor arm + HT leads/plug caps and dizzy cap strongly recommended. Or just get a complete new dizzy from Accuspark and have no more problems ! I assume the spark plugs are good and gapped to 25 thou. You SURE that's an 803 engine ???? We literally just discovered the '...

Hi, We reset the valve, cleaned out the contact points and replaced the fuel pomp but the car still continues to have hiccups, I made a small video so you can hear what I mean, does anyone have any idea's, we don't know what's wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uy_VXqt5iv8&feature=youtu.be p...

11 thou when hot. By the way, as a fan of mm's and old air cooled vw's I'd be interested to hear your opinion on which is the better car... What does the THOU mean?

The best way to be 100% certain is the oil filter - if it screws in horizontally (i.e. sideways) to the block, then it'...

Ignition warning light, should go off when dynamo is charging, will come on when you switch the ignition on or if the fanbelt breaks and the dynamo doesn't charge. It looks as though you have a seriesMM or series 2. We went to a local tuning shop and they checked the dynamo and battery and accordin...

My 'new' minor is from '53 and imported to the netherlands around 15 years ago, drove around here for about 5 years and then was stalle...
