Re: Minor Seats
It's te same as mine (split personality model), see https://board.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?p=694360&hilit=Split+model#p694360 My seat base has a one piece rubber diaphragm rather than separate straps but a couple of the hooks had come adrift and it makes the base sag. It's only 4 bolts at the f...

Re: Minor Seats
When I bought mine I had the opposite the seat felt to high and too close to the wheel. I decided to move the seat back to the optional holes and when doing so found a block of wood under the carpet across the floor, the previous owner had put under the rear of the seat legs. It feels much better no...

Re: Rear brake pipe
So does that also mean at the front the junction with stoplight switch it is BSF in from master cylinder and UNF out to left and right front brake? No it is BSF both ends as far as I am aware. I replaced all of my braking system but I confess that I bought a Kunifer brake pipe set from Automec rath...

Re: its a bit of a shock.
It's all a state of mind, most of the single roads in my area are now 50 or even 40 limits and the villages 20. A 1098 moggy will easily maintain these speeds. Never go on motorways and 55 on occasional short dual carriageway hop. Just pottering and enjoying the drive is what the car is for

Re: Fitting beehive springs.
Excellent. Thank you. Now that is really interesting. I did not realise that the design of the spring hook has completely changed! Stephen With the leg of the parts supplied hook shortened I found no need to rotate them, just compress with pliers and slide behind the backplate lug. :tu1: Yes. I did...

Re: 1098 Carb
Why would you fit a different carb to original manifold?
The original is perfectly OK in its application, are you having problems with it?
If its the spindle wear from you other post, have you thought of bushing it?

Re: 1098 oil pressure light pressure.
An audible alarm wired to the higher pressure is also an option :tu1: As you say Phil an early warning of dropping pressure is preferable. Oil temp is particularly advantageous In a competition engine such as yours. Did once have a rod exit the side of the block on the dyno before the oil pressure d...

Re: 1098 oil pressure light pressure.
But if it comes on driving its probably too late, much prefer a gauge, that's why
I have oil and temp guages next to each other, you get used to normal needle positions and notice if out of the norm, even when not reading the actual numbers.
