Morris Minor Owners Club

can anyone recomend a good lightweight weatherproof cover for a minor that must live outside it must be lightweight or I wont use it.

I dont know if I have a problem or not when I fill the radiator to 1/2inch from the bottom of the filler neck according to the book it always blows out the water until it reaches 2inches below I have tried fitting a 7lb long reach cap but it stil happens any ideas??

I have just upgraded to 1275 midget engine 3 branch manifold 5 speed box hs4 carb with KN inlet filter and it goes really well but in a traffic jam (which there seem to be more of lately)I have a problem with over heating and thought that possibly an elecric radiator fan would be the answer can any ...

can anyone tell me can a staightforward swap be made between a Mg midget differential and a Minor back axle

And can you be sure the gauge is reasonably accurate? I can't see that underbonnet temps should be high enough to cause heat related ...

1275 mg midget engine I have fitted a 1275 midget engine with a 3 branch exhaust manifold mg metro inlet manifold and hs4 su carb goes well untill I hit traffic and engine temp goes over 90 then missfires and appears to suffer from petrol stavation and breaks down completely untill temp drops below ...
