Morris Minor Owners Club

Thanks for the info and quick quick reply.

I am about to undertake the task of replacing my starter motor (Morris 1000 1967). Is it as easy as it says in the manual, ie remove the wiring on the end, undo the 2 bolts and remove the old one?

Thanks everyone for the advice, put the new pump in today and washers work a treat.

I need to get my washers sorted for the MOT. At present there is no water being pumped to the windscreen jets.

Hi,
I'm having problems with the above which are cutting out intermitantly. I've changed the fuse and checked for any loose connection, none apparant. Any ideas.

Many thanks Alex, I've located it but it was tucked under a rather large hose which isn't shown in your engine bay. Filled it up now.

Hi, just got my first Morris 1000 after months of looking. The water has run out of my washer bottle and I can't find the bottle. The manuals mention the bottle but don't say where it is located in the car. Help please.... Thanks
