Morris Minor Owners Club

It’s not always 4 seconds - sometimes it says 5 or 6. Sometimes it lets me in on the next try, but sometimes I get the message again a couple more times. It doesn’t seem to matter if I’m logged in or not. It’s not a massive problem…I just wondered.

More often than not I get this message when I try to search the forums. Is it just me?

Thanks both. @Chief…newly covered seats is exactly why I’m considering taking them out!

My 1959 Traveller has front and rear seat belts fitted. The rear ones are a pain in the neck when putting the rear seat up and down. I rarely (once) have anyone travelling in the back anyway. If I remove the rear seat belts will it a problem for the MOT (which I do know isn’t legally required)?

@geoberni Thanks for the photo!

@Bill_qaz I thought it was going to be a large suction cup but it’s a super sticky gel pad. The description says that it is ‘earthquake proof, not to hurt the phone’ so maybe I should have guessed

@Bill_qaz Hi Bill, it’s not actually a removable suction pad, but a very sticky permanent backing.

@geoberni Thank you! I’ve fixed the link. Yes - it was the car battery he was talking about. I see what mean about the magnetic sheet pulling down. I’ve never heard of the spider but am off to investigate…

I have bought a small sat nav holder but don't want it permanently stuck to my windscreen. There is space to mount it on the dashboard between the speedo and glove box lid so I was thinking of using a magnet to hold it on. I have found some magnetic rubber sheet https://e-magnetsuk.com/product/magne...

@geoberni - and for the interesting diversion into 2 or 4 blades!

@olonas Maybe spots would look good!

Thanks J! I’ll check in the manuals when I’m home next week. Ian took a red one off but assumed it should be yellow. T would obviously prefer a red one

Hi, does anyone know whether the fan should be red or yellow on a Dec 1959 Traveller? Thanks!

Thanks @rocco
I will take a look.

Does anyone have any recent experience of having a 948cc engine rebuilt? Mine needs a rebuild but it's proving very difficult to find a reputable company to do it. Many seem to have gone out of business in Covid; others are just no longer interested in doing this work. I'm looking for recommendation...

@sleeper Thanks John!

@sevendin Thank you!

@sevendin I’ve just had my Traveller converted to unleaded in the same circumstances as you. What is the fuel stabiliser you use and how much do you put in? Thank you.

Thank you - I've contacted them for a quotation.

Hi, Can anyone recommend a trailering service as I need to get my car from Stansted, Essex to Ely, Cambridgeshire. Thanks for any help!
