I want to fit the Spin-on oil filter conversion kit from Moss. This is the one which uses the existing filter head, and seems to me to have the advantage of not disturbing existing 40 year old pipework. Moss' catalogue states that the kit is good for all Tecalamit heads EXCEPT those with a casting n...

Many thanks.

The ignition light on my 1962 Minor 1000 does not illuminate at tick-over, but glows as engine revs increase. The light glows brighter when the headlights are switched on, again going out at tick-over. I have an alternator fitted. I have just driven 20 miles with wipers and heater on, and the batte...
