Re: Pictures

Hi
I think it’s the old pictures that I can’t access I think the one I was looking at was 2017 thereabouts.
Could you please send me pictures of 1098 carb throttle and choke cable where they go.

Re: Rumbling from the back

The rumbling from the back of the car starts from about 40mph then the faster I go it gets progressively worse

Rumbling from the back

1952 morris minor convertible with a 1098 engine. When I get to 40mph there’s a rumbling sound coming from the rear can anyone help. I don’t know if it’s the prop shaft or the back axle it’s had an updated diff on it (good for cruising up the motorway)

Keeps hitting floor

I have a 1952 convertible and when I have three or four people in the car every time we go over a bump it touches the floor. Could it be the exhaust? Or is something wrong with the suspension? I don’t know
