Well, I found an old rusty 7/16 socket in one of the rear bumper brackets. I reckon I'm not unique in this find. Was helping a friend a couple of weeks ago, investigating some rust on his BJ7. We fo

Tracy, I had the same experience. Thought a simple magnet would do the trick, but that thing clings to every piece of metal in the neighborhood so didn't help at all. After some cans of Heineken I ca

I presume you have tried the old magnet on a stick??? I found old rusty nuts and bolts, and a carb linkage ball end. No treasure! Darn... Ray Juncal Tracy Drummond <bighealey@charter.net> wrote: Dag

I shortened a 1/2" open wrench a few years back for getting to those pesky bottom carb nuts. I promptly let it slip from my fingers. The bottomless hole was hungry and its mouth was gaping like a bab

How about some more description of your 1/" magic wrench? Just what exactly did you do to the original wrench? How about some dimensions? I always figured the when they decided to build a Healey 3000

Hi Lee, I just took an inexpensive open end wrench (1/2" on one end and 7/16" or 9/16" on the other - it wouldn't matter) and put in my vise and hacksawed it off. I left only about 1" of shank behind

I did something a little different. I took a 1/2" box end wrench and filed down both faces to make it thin enough to use. The longer length lets me pass it from one set of fingers to the other. The o

Speaking of carburettor nuts. In addition to the black hole in the frame (which is now plugged with a piece of foam rubber), there is another black hole of unknown location. I have dropped at least t

Alan: I believe that I searched all around the engine mount area in every hole and opening that the nut(s) could possibly fall into. I'll double check next time - as I am sure a 'next time' will come
