hi ciao

Post by joeone62 »

hi everyone, nice to see that others share this never ending adventure called morris minor. At he moment i am in France for working resons, but i live in Italy, but many years ago i used to live in england. About a year ago while on holiday i found a dealer who had a 1965 morris minor convertable, and it was love at first sight. since then my only thought is to get this baby back on the road in good condition. And so this adventure continues through research, books and internet. Its long and hard and more problems just pop up at all times, and its always a challenge to find correct information that can be used still today as the correct kind of brake fluid to be used. But with your help this problem will be walk over, thanks to all of you.<br>Image<br><br>Image<br><br>Image<br>

Ordinary brake fluid, DOT 4, not silicone. I assume that you have found the master cylinder buried under the carpet on the driver's side.
