The top edge of the doors doesnt hit the rubber seal at all in the top. :x Any one knows if there was a difference on the m...

If i change the fuse, it works for a couple of minuts, then the fuse blows again. I have tried to to...

Hi folks I have a Traveller from 69 with 1098 cc engine. Yesterday i experinced something rather strange. When I turned the key to start , the solenoid just clicked. If I push the rubber buttom on the solenoid, with the key with ignition on, the engine starts !!! But not when im only using the key. ...

Hi There Yesterday I discovered that my oil pressure light in the speedometer comes slightly on at slowrunning. Only with the engine hot. :oops:(the oil pressure is lower at hot engine) When I accelerate the light switches off. Now - the car has been standing for a while ( 14 days or so) without dri...

Hi there Im having troubles to keep up the engine temperature here at winter. The heater on the late Minor is simply to big ! I have removed the fan blades, and it helped me a bit - but not enough. The mixture on the carb is perfect, and I have an 88 degree thermostat fitted. So is there anyone who ...

[quote="Blunt"][quote]Also, travelling downhill with the throttle closed does not produce any snapping or popping from the exhaust.

Yes - but what if it does ? What does that indicate ?Faulty exhaust valves ???

Hi


You write snapping and popping sounds from the exhaust travelling downhills with the throttle closed ?
Is that a sign of a failure ?
Many Minors does that including my own
What is the course of that ?

Hi

what is the correct lubrication for the steering rack and steering house ?
The original little instruction book says Hypoid oil and NOT grease !!
Is that correct ?

cheers

Try to adjust the timing on the rouletated screw on the dizzy. then the tick over probably will stop.

Hi
No - not at all.

Hi again
Thanks for the answers.
Im not in doubt about how much oil that is the correct amount. I also have a manual on the car , and knows exactly how much and where the oil is to be added.
the problem is that I constantly can add oil up to the mark in the tube - which I think is strange.

cheers

Hi folks :) I have the HS2 carburettor on my traveller. Oil is needed added in the damping piston on it. Is it normal that this carburettor uses large quantums of oil ? - i mean - It needs refill every week !! - im only driving a few miles at week !! Theres no leaks anywhere from it under the bowl. ...
