Re: Leaving a Morris in the Open Air

If you keep a car outside all the time it will probably deteriorate a bit faster than keeping it in a garage but the main factor will be the condition of the car in the first place. My own Minor Convertible lives outside all year round and has done for years. It is in good condition with very littl...

Re: Tracker Systems

On the subject of the actual TRACKER, this product is monitored by the police, therefore the traffic unit on the ground has a tracker locater installed as does the forces helicopter. I have lost count of the amount of vehicles recovered using tracker, it works very well. A word of caution, thieves ...

Re: Low Air flow From heater to screen outlets

Hi, I have found that with the standard set up the supply to the screen vents from any Minors heater will be, at best, feeble. You can get circular drum heaters which have fitted vent flaps for the interior heat supply that can can be closed off, enabling the heat to be more effectively directed to...

Re: Low Air flow From heater to screen outlets

Low flow to the screen is completely normal, regardless of whether you have the early type, or late type heater (which you haven’t said). I’ve always found that despite the low flow, it’s just about enough to keep the screen clear in all but the most horrendous weather, but the later fresh air heat...
