I had trouble fitting the spin on kit too but, as far as I can ascertain from the descriptions given so far, my problem was different. The OE filter mount on the engine appeared, externally, to be standard but the alloy adapter collar wouldn't thread up to meet the mount. Inside the mount was a fix...

Some while ago a member called "Speedbox" complained that the 'spin-on oil filter conversion didn't fit. I was recently moved to replace the bolt through oil filter with the spin-on conversion. Not because it was easier to change but because it can be less messy and will reseal every time....

The propshaft seems very close to one side of the tunnel and its getting worse - so when you go up hill it scrapes on the tunnel and when turning sharpe right and left (its an awlful noise) what could this be? I'd like to lift the rear sufficienly that it doesn't touch the tunnel -or is it really a...

The reason is that nobody wants to be a 'Private,' 'Pillion Passenger' or 'Newbie' because they are treated like witless idiots as you have demonstrated within this thread. I have never said, suggested or made such a statement and as far as I am aware neither has anyone else on this site board unti...

Are we entering into a new era of web fascism :-? Not at all Kirsten if missinformation is posted then people are quick to correct it - so why the fuss to remove things? The problem is that newbies often pick up bits of threads and take them out of context which sometimes leads to bad engineering p...

Another option would be to have a sticky in the Top Tips Section I am looking in to that but just need things confirmed 100%. Misinformation from the Mania site - Yes look at the fuss it has created, a couple more votes and I will delete it, not so much for the regular users but more for the novice...

Well 'Dirky 52' - still waiting to hear who the 'very reputable specialist' is!! http://www.minormania.com/feature.php?id=2010&catid=699 This section is on wheels and tyres. There are other sections describing the differences between the Mk's on this site. I would like to point out that in ment...

No - early MMs used 4.5" PCD wheels - with bolts to hold them on rather than studs/nuts. As far as I know Morris never used metric pcd wheels on any of their cars. I don't want to appear distrustful of what you say but I think it is important to everyone thinking of upgrading wheels that we ha...

this is for my dad..."do cortina mk1's/2's, and escort mk1's/2's have same pcd as the standard mog?" both of us asking q's about wheels, i do apologise! Not wishing to put anyone's nose out of joint but I though I read somewhere that early MM's used metric PCD 100mm. Being metric and bein...
