Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi can someone please give me some advice on what to use on my woodwork?
Oil or varnish and also where's best to purchase the complete kit of channels for the sliding Windows, thanks.

Okay thanks guys I will try this later on in the week.

So my Morris will run for a while, I had it idling for just over an hour before attempting to drive it and it loses power when accelerating, it accelerates fluffily and dies. When I took the spark plugs out they were black so I guess the mixture is too rich? So is the best way to sort it by tighteni...

Hi everyone, I'm just wondering if someone will come and set my carb up on my traveller? I'm just off the A6, Heaton Moor Area, thanks.

I went for the DYNAMTAOR. So it is an alternator in a dynamo body so gives out 45amps and looks original. Wired the same as an alternator so easy to install. Also electronic ignition kits are on eBay for around £30 really easy to install as well.

Just off the A6 (Heaton Moor). About 10mins from Edgeley & I don't need it doing right away, thanks.

Hi I am looking for someone who has experience to set up my carb as I cannot get it quite right and the spark plugs turn pink after a short while, Thankyou.

Hi les, how's the work going on your cars? I'm the guy with the green Traveller you took pictures of if you're wondering haha. I've been after a nice set of wheels for ages.

Hi I was just wondering if a set of minilites 101mm PCD, 175/70 R13 would be suitable for my Traveller? Thanks.

Hi what oil should I use in the rear axle? And do I just use engine oil in the gearbox? Thanks. Halfords is my local store.

Yes okay I can go ahead with that but is there a way I can get a reg for the year it was made? (It's an ex mod vehicle) I'm trying to keep it as original as possible so what would you do? Thanks.

Yes I have the v5c.

The car was made in 1968 but first registered in 1976

Thanks for the responses guys.

It's an ex army vehicle so does anyone know how I go about getting a reg plate for the year it was made??
And am I best changing it before it goes on the mot database or will it not matter (for originality). Thank you.

Hi I am trying to get an not on my traveller that I've restored but the garage phoned me and said it comes up as a 1968 rover???
And not as a Morris minor??!?!?!?!

So I've been tinkering about with it today and it idled for an hour without overheating but the orange light is always on but goes off when accelerating. The oil level is topped up correctly.

Okay I will have a look at this tomorrow thanks.

The light comes on only when the car has overheated.
