Morris Minor Owners Club

Sorry, I meant to refit as a temporary measure to ensure your bracing goes on correctly as it going to be the correct size to go by. Heres the pic I though Id put on the last post!<br><br>

The speedo is now out, anyone know how to get the heater out? there's no mention of it in either of my Haynes manuals<br><br>

will fish it out you wont be in a rush for it as cant get to it at the moment

Hi David,

Have a look at this video - will provide you with truly boring information about the Minor heater. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 7494577230
I'm sure others will provide you with better info

Ani

Great, what an interesting video. Thanks Ani, how on earth did you discover that, or did you have some involvement in its production, director maybe.

Oh dear, here is Kay getting stuck in removing some animal nesting material from the back of the dashboard, I think she was hoping to find a little field mouse to keep as a pet.<br><br>

If I directed that I don't think I'd tell anyone about it No I just came across it on google and as bad as it is I just had to watch it all! I'd like to clean mine up at some stage so do let me know if you found it useful.

I hope she's got gloves on

ah that was done by one of our members on here

well I only watched as far as getting the heater out, but I'll be revisiting later on to follow up heater maintenance. here's a shot to show what Kay was clearing out, looks like our furry friends made a little home here. I wonder if they were neighbours to those living in the fuel tank. As every mouse knows, You get a better standard of living behind the dashboard.<br><br>

Ops - perhaps I should have kept my comments to myself - and Ive only got little feet
My apologies to whoever did it - must admit I wish I knew as much as she does

once the heater is out it is simply screws that holds everything in place
the most common cause and i suspect it may be the case in your heater david is the matrix that gets clogged and leaks
and unfortunately i dont think that new matrix`s are available any more

i have serviced many heaters and is a very easy job to do

Let's hope its not clogged up with field mice

Did you notice in the top right hand corner of the image of kay clearing out behind the dash, there's a little smiley face aaahhhh I might use that as my signature picture, now how do I do that?.<br><br>

That's easy - go to your profile and upload the picture under the signature bit. I like it too!

oh i was only pointing out that it was a member on here that did the vid

It's smiling encouragingly, like a slightly deranged monkey.<br><br>

Love it! Looks a bit like your pick-up or maybe you crawling out from underneath it !!!!

I think its my pickup smiling, because its happy at being rescued, either that or its laughing at the scale of the job it's new owner has taken on.
Thanks eaupickup for the heater tip, I'll be as careful as I can to save the heater, if the matrix's are hard to find it's worth saving this one.

i have a new one and a very good second hand one if you get stuck for one

i also have some hoses for the heater
