Bought my second MGB on Friday (first one was a '77 rust bucket that I could not license and I got rid of it quickly a couple of years ago). I have a few questions for the experts out there: I'm not

I Hardly! The early front covers had the pointers below the pulley. Has the pulley got a timing mark? If so where is it when the rotor arm is pointing at No.1 plug lead - assuming the engine runs? No

Congrats. You probably want the book "Original MGB" by A. D. Clausager. This is THE source for the kind of info you will need. At Moss or Classic Motorbooks, or maybe even Amazon. You'll also want th

The 18V in my 1973/1974 hybrid has no paint left, but the engine compartment is the same light blue as the rest of the car, and is at least the seventh or eighth layer of paint. The DPO painted the e

Thanks for the response. A couple of more questions then: - what is the right size pulley for the engine? and how much clearance should there be between the pulley and the subframe? - yes there is a

I can answer only one of your questions; no backup lights in 65. It will be probably be hard to find spare MG parts in turquoise and orange:-) Monte 79B, Carmine, black block 67B, BRG, black block 7

The timing mark turns is at about 10 o'clock (facing the engine) when the rotor is at #1 - no timing marks there ! Bob /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Archives at http://www.team

Sounds like you have the wrong cover/pully combination. There is a cover that has the timing marks at about 10 O'clock. Larry Hoy /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Archives at http

OK, looks like a mismatch between the late model pulley (timing mark at 10 o'clock) with the early model timing cover (marks at 6 o'clock). Which one represents the vintage of the rest of the motor p
