Morris Minor Owners Club

Curved without a doubt!

In MY experience i would say that 99% of the panels i have fitted have needed some sort of adjustment to align correctly (and i have fitted a great many!!) :wink: . Personally i wouldn't recommend pre-assembling panels and the spot welder you probably have is nowhere near as powerful as the industri...

I had Firestone's (145x14) and the wire started to appear on the outside edge of the tread towards the sidewall!! It wasn't a one off either as 2 of our cars had the same problem and the tyres were bought 6 months apart!
Would never have them again!

Just to confirm, i'll be there!

No problem Mike! The offer is there.

I'll look forward to having a good look then Rob! Many thanks.

MM16, Will pm you wednesday then! Thank you! :D Rob, I WILL bring the backing plate for you thursday! :wink: I think you have the Midget engine. Kevin, I will give them a try as i have another issue about engine breathing on this engine that i need cleared up! :D Thanks everyone for your help! :D

If you want to borrow some in the short term then i will happily lend you mine if you like?

Anyway, back to next weeks venue! The Bold Forester is fine with me! As i am not that familiar with the area then i am unable to suggest an alternative!

And its the smooth block Marina that i have but i was under the impression that this type of engine was an A series and not an A+, not that it matters anyway, i am just trying to find out how to fit an oil cooler to it!!

BMC, Yes, i have the high mounted filter which is the problem, but i thought all A+ engines had the "ribbing" on the engine block :-? . The block i have is smooth but without tappet chest covers and with the high filter. I will look into GAS's suggestion today. Thanks for the advice about ...

Hi Onne,
The problem i have is not being able to tap into the oilway due to my engine type! Its not a simple job like all other a-series engines!

Thanks for that JimK. I know where your coming from but i had/have no problem with the now missing post from the other user, but i understand that some user's prefer to remain anonymous. :D :wink: Carlo! :wink: Big G, Good for you! Nice to know there is someone out there keeping an eye out for the g...

Hi GAS, Thanks for your reply. I will look Merlin motorsport up and have a look. I am not sure which oil cooler to use yet, but i remember seeing a Metro with one as a standard fit and thinking it looked about right, and being as it was a factory fit on the a-series then it must be suitable! I think...

I am thinking of fitting an oil cooler to my 1275 Marina engine, but was wondering if anyone else had done this, as it appears that there is no-where to tap into because of the oil filter mounting, unlike all the other a-series engines with the oil filter fed from a pipe. I guess the only way to do ...

Thats fine! :wink: The pick up is mine Big G! :D As previously mentioned, it is one of the 2 road legal mog's i have at the moment. The other being a 1949 Lowlight tourer that rarely comes out, but the pick up is used everyday no matter what! The lowlight tourer is the one that was for sale in bits ...

This time we will wait with the cars for longer and make sure we have found everybody expected before heading to the beer garden!

The Lamb it is then! I'll see you all there thursday eve!

Unless i have MY wires crossed? I just presumed this was the place that you were referring too?
