I have 2 (probably stupid) questions about my MGA which still sits undesturbed out in my garage. 1) I got the new banjo bolts and washers for the rear brakes (the banjo was leaking and the bolts were

Could be. Did you replace the flex hose? It could be old, collapsed inside, and letting air in. Don't know about the banjo question. There is an adjustment. You need to look under the bonnet and find

Hey Tom I don't think that Aluminum and steel get along well. The aluminum tends to disappear where it contacts steel. A 4' X 8' sheet of 1/2" marine plywood is about $50. I used 1/2" but I believe t
