Morris Minor Owners Club

Thanks mike i,ll shop around but maybe try a 28 as only one on offer.

I use NU T Link detachable link belt. I measure the length I need, detach it from the roll then join the ends together and fit it.
If I need to run the car without the water pump I just shorten the belt by removing some links[frame][/frame]

Thanks for your suggestion will check out nut link.

You might find it a little expensive, a 5 metre box cost me over £100 but it seems to be virtually indestructible.
I could be pursuaded to part with a metre for £20.

Get back to you on that mike,awaitingt new fan belt from morris specialist,ian harris,see if this one is any good.

Why go to 'specialist' for a fan belt!? Even Hellfrauds will have one - or any decent Autoshop........

Try Kramp.com, also in nl they have a lot of industrial V-belts in all of the types.
A B28 belt, is a very standard in the industry....

I have now fitted a b28 fanbelt to my morris and delighted it is most suitable for my series mm,purchased from ian harris morris specialist,my local halfords in lanark has very little stock for cars mostly cycles,have now returned b26 belt back to esm for a refund,this should conclude thread now.

Have you tried getting a B section fan belt?

whats a b section fanbelt??

B section is the thickness of the Series MM fanbelt. M1000 fan belts are A section

On this site, you can see the difference between the A anb B types:

very interesting learn something new every day,anyway i,ve got a good b28 which is the one i was after.

http://www.bearingshopuk.co.uk/index.as ... fAodLl-B1g Or any Bearing Services place. B section belts are very common. I'm amazed Lanark HAS a Hellfrauds....

amazing bmcecosse, very interesting site and the belt is very inexpensive ,both esm and ian harris charge £6.50 ,so with vat and postage total price £10,i,ll keep this site in mind.
sure you will not be at bo,ness tomorrow,worth a bacon roll and coffee if you turn up.

No fear - but I will be there on Monday repairing the damage the Diesels do to the track on the foreshore.....
Actually - I do quite like the diesels, and I hope to get passed for the class 37 quite soon......

Heavy rain at bo,ness today but managed a ride on dmu,very impressed with standards,photos of class 20,08,27,26 and n.b diesel,enjoyed the day.

I thought that this was a Series MM website
What's a dmu, is it a gnu with dyslexia?
Lovely weather for the Nuffield Place Rally

mm website reinstated sorry mike.

mike, d.m.u, picture for you, fitted with AEC engines, got part of my refund from ESM for the incorrect fanbelt they sent me,they did not refund my postage £4, £2 each way.[frame][/frame]
