Well, since no one else piped in, I'll have a go. Long, drawn out posts describing basic procedures based on general theory without any specific application are my specialty. The idea is to get all

When the 25D distributor on my '74 B turned out to be trash, I searched high and low for a new or rebuilt replacement without any luck at all. (The vacuum advance is not available, nor are the centr

When I rebuilt my motor I was pleased to find that there are pretty much three sizes of nuts & bolts used. David indicated the wrench size used, not the thread size, which is how you'll buy them. I'

There's no free lunch. As I understand it, halogen headlamps will produce more light, but that will require more current. I don't know about extra heat in the bulbs being a problem, but I'd bet the

I wonder if, over the storage period, some corrosion is mucking with the ground for your gauge or sender, causing the reading to be inaccurate. Have you returned to the gas station to see if you've

While I agree that the most likely suspect is air in the hydraulic lines, I'd have to ask if there's a chance you put the clutch disk in backwards. I don't know how an MG would react to this, but in
