I gotta agree with you there. I also looked at the fact that MiniMania sells the tapered bearing kits for $99 each side of the car. Ouch. I do believe that it would be easier to find quality tapered

Not only was it not stock (neither was the Pug), but the Sprite looked to have been purpose-built for hill climbs while the Pug was purpose-built for bench-racing. Hardly fair ;-) What is the line a

OK, Robert, let me make it simple for you... there was a yellow Bugeye with a highly modified engine, transmission, differential, and suspension; there was a much-riced Peugeot; they were driven by

I find it a little difficult to believe that one advance curve is going to cover all MGA, MGB, and A-Series models. Even Lucas didn't try to make that fly. Still, it is a reasonably affordable distr

That may be so, Jim, But I apparently spelled it wrong, so all bets are off. Besides, I was talking about where the yarn was located, not where it took place. I am relatively sure that you can find

True. Generally speaking, if the wheel starts spontaneously shaking EVERY time it hits certains speeds, it is a balance/tire problem; if it doesn't start shaking until you hit a bump, it is a wear i

No, I don't think air is getting into the system, otherwise he would never get a hard pedal. The fact that gentle pressure allows the pedal to go to the floor implies that the cups in the MC are jus

The issue is the question of what starts the wobble. If it IS a balance issue, it will start every time a specific speed is exceeded; if it is worn suspension bits, you will be able to exceed that s

I agree with Derf's surmise. It sounds as if a late-model wiring harness was used with the green wires for the reverse lights as well as the neutral switch present in the 1974. Safe to ignore in a B
