This sounds verrry familiar. Last Spring, I went to start the '67 B and even though I had plenty of cranking amps, no start. I felt a tune up was in order, and after completing that pleasant job, she

Had the same problem about four years ago when I didn't drive my B for about eight weeks when I was doing a respray. The peddle went to the floor, which is exciting when you have a steep driveway. T

Darn it, you jinxed me. I was skipping this thread about MG brake failure because "my brakes are just fine, those poor suckers". Whoops. I had to go back and dig this one out of my email trashbin. J

I cured my similar problem by overhauling the cylinders and replacing the shoes (you have to replace both sides, dammit) Whilst doing the overhaul I noted that the natural rubber seals were rotted,

I've used them all and I think 2 people is (are?)the best. Oh well. A close second, however, is the Mighty Vac - hand-held,mini vac which is useful for all manner of chores around the car. Sears has

Well, that paints a pretty mental picture doesn't it! I found a Mity-Vac-by-another-name at Canadian Tire today. Looked a lot more impressive that I thought the unit would be, but at $75CDN it made M

Save your money. I've used all of them, too, and *none* worked for me. The ones that pressurize the master cylinder just pressurized the whole system and locked up my brakes. The Mighty Vac is suppos

Hahah... the trick is to decide whether you want to get the wife to work the bleeder screw or the pedal. It's one of those jobs that I want to be doing both ends to make sure it's "just right". I'm a
