Weird Wobble

Hello All Took the Morris out for a good run yesterday to Kelmarsh hall. She drove very well (even managing to cope with the snow, hail and mud on the field!) except for the following worry. It would cruise quite happily at 50Mph but after 55-60Mph a wobble became apparent? It certainly wasnt an eng...

The correct oil filter by FRAM is part number CH816PL, you should be able to cross refrence that to other makes. But FRAM are the best filters on the market, I will use nothing else as it is a vital component. Champoin part number is X101 I only use Fram, they are very reliable and have a resonable...

Is there anything else that can be done to waterproof a moggy? My mate used silicone gel in a mastik gun on his VW Beetle? Is he silly or is this a sound way of doing the job???
